National Jamboree

Consider it the holy grail of Jamboree patches: a set featuring a recognizable brand name. Patches with brands often have increased trade value.

Some 350 hungry Scouts showed up at Golden Corral. So much for a relaxing meal, Becky Bush must have thought. Then something unexpected happened.

When that first Scout or Venturer arrives, the 2017 National Jamboree will have officially begun, forming West Virginia’s third-largest city.
