A Critical Reminder for Jamboree Participants

Safety is paramount at the 2023 National Jamboree, and it is the collective responsibility of all participants to ensure a secure and protected environment. As we eagerly anticipate this exceptional event, it’s important to keep safety at the forefront of our minds. To uphold this commitment, we kindly remind everyone of the emergency number and the importance of speaking up when witnessing any suspicious or potentially harmful situations.

At the Jamboree, immediate access to emergency assistance is crucial in maintaining the well-being of all participants. The designated emergency number, (304) 465-2900, serves as a direct line to the Jamboree’s emergency response team. Memorize or save this number in your mobile devices, and encourage others to do the same. In case of any emergencies, this number will ensure a prompt and effective response to address the situation and provide necessary assistance.

Creating a safe environment requires the active involvement and vigilance of every participant. As Scouts and leaders, we are encouraged to be observant and proactive. If you notice something unusual, suspicious, or potentially hazardous, remember the adage: “If you see something, say something.” Reporting your concerns promptly to the appropriate authorities or event staff helps maintain the overall safety and well-being of everyone at the Jamboree.

By speaking up, you contribute to a culture of safety, where potential risks can be swiftly addressed and mitigated. Your alertness and willingness to report any concerning incidents demonstrate your commitment to fostering a secure and enjoyable Jamboree experience for all.

As we eagerly await the 2023 National Jamboree, let us reaffirm our dedication to safety and security. Remember to keep the emergency number, (304) 465-2900, readily available, and don’t hesitate to report any suspicious activities or concerns. By working together, we can ensure a safe and unforgettable Jamboree adventure for everyone. Let’s prioritize safety and be proactive in creating a positive and secure environment for all participants.
