Haarlem Jamborette

From the 31st of July up until the 9th of August 2011, the Haarlem Jamborette will see its eleventh anniversary. This international scouting event (a small Jamboree) is held every four years.

With about 2.500 scouts from different nationalities you will put up camp for ten days in Spaarnwoude (between Haarlem and Amsterdam) in the Netherlands. We will offer you a great variety of excursions and sportive, creative and typical scouting activities. We will ensure a grand opening, campfire, a disco and a spectacular closing ceremony. Are you looking forward to it? Surf to www.haarlemjamborette.nl

Over 400 volunteers work to make the Jamborette a huge success and take good care of you for 10 days. The only thing you have to bring is your camping and cooking equipment and we will provide: food and drinks, good facilities, internet, a great café, and nice spacious areas to put up your tent.

The camp fee for the Jamborette amounts to 305 euro for 10 days (includes food and all activities). But, if you register your group before the 1st of April 2010, then the camp fee will be only 290 euro per participant. So do not wait too long since the offer is only valid until the 1st of April or when the total number of pre-ordered participants reaches 1.500.

So register as soon as possible at www.haarlemjamborette.nl
