Now with the Jamboree officially over, Scouting Radio are looking for Scouts, Scouters and parents to give feedback on the Jamboree. Jacob Pitchler is a Scout who participated in the recent National Boy Scouts of America Jamboree 2010 in Virginia. Here are his memories of the weeklong celebration.

This year's National Jamboree marked the 100th year birthday celebration for the Boy Scouts of America.

It also was the last time the Jamboree would be conducted at Fort AP Hill, Virginia. With that said, it was a very special event in my life. My family has been almost 100 years in scouting too, starting with Joseph S. Glasstetter, my great-grandfather on my mother's side. He organized and was scoutmaster with a troop in western Pennsylvania back in the early 1900s.

He did this for several years before he married my great-grandmother in 1918. My great-uncle, my father, my brother, three of my uncles and five cousins also have been in scouts. We have six Eagle scouts within our family, including myself!

It is fantastic to be a part of an organization that upholds God, family and country. It is awesome to be with others who have a common bond, and the Jamboree was a great chance for this.

Scouts from all over the world participated, along with troops composed of 36 boys from their regional councils from every state.

The Jamboree housed approximately 50,000 scouts alone, not including the daily visitors who also attended. There were many activities that kept everyone busy. Two of my favorites were the patch trading and the training course sponsored by the United States Coast Guard.

There was something for everyone — BMX biking, rappelling, archery and marksmanship, scuba and snorkeling, fishing, and the list goes on!

One of my most memorable moments was the presenting of the wreath at Arlington National Cemetery at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. I was chosen with three other scouts from Troop 1323, Greater Western Reserve Council, to carry the wreath.

This was a real honor. Several of my family members have served in many of our nation's wars. This was my way of showing my gratitude and thanks to them, and all of those who have served to preserve our freedoms.

I also was the troop's chaplain, and had the privilege to help serve communion in the National Cathedral in Washington.

The last event was at Saturday's Big Birthday Celebration. The lighting of our individual candles and the campfire ceremony was a reflective event. The idea was that we were lighting our way to a better future and carrying the ashes from our past to our new home in West Virginia — The Summit.

This new high adventure camp and Jamboree site will be almost in our backyard. That's exciting!

I am proud to be a scout and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in our 100th year celebration. I would like to thank all of those who made it possible — and that's no small group!

Scouting has given me many wonderful opportunities that will last a lifetime. I truly wish everyone could be a Scout.
