It happens every 3 years. Last jamboree was 2007 and we were there to cover the event in the centenial year. This time is bigger, bigger BIGGER!

AJ2010 will be held at the Cataract Scout Park located on the edge of Cataract Lake (or Dam... depends how you look at it!), in New South Wales, Australia. While a great deal of activities will be held onsite, such as Abseiling, BMX bike riding, and a High Ropes course, there will also be a range of offsite activities. These offsite activities range from taking the kids on tours of Sydney, to a visit to the Jambaroo Adventure Park, and much, much more!

While the rest of us will be spending the first few weeks of January recovering from over-eating at Christmas time, or trying to keep our New Year's resolutions, for those Scouting-minded, that is the time for AJ2010! The Australian Jamboree 2010 will be start on Monday, 4 January 2010 and finish on Thursday, 14 January 2010 (excluding move in and out dates)
