Maybe his attendance is one of "a few surprises" he mentioned. I hope Glen Pounder will also attend and speak of problems and progress with YP since he came on board a year ago. -
Maybe not a "patch", Way back in 2005 (not quite ancient history, but still....) I served as a Chaplain (Religious Society of Friends) at the National Jamboree at what was then titled Fort A. P. Hill. Even then, when I found out who Hill was, I wondered, "they named a US Army Base after a Confederate General ???" . I am glad we settled that mistake. Anyhow, I was issued a real live gen-you-wine Jamboree BICYCLE ! Helped me get around on my Chaplain duties. Even gave me a bike lock with it. Yes, I have some stories, another time.... At the end of the Jamboree, I was told I could BUY IT and take it home, so I did ( a bargain for a "used" bike !) Scout son rode it for a while at home, then out grew it. He later became a bike trip leader for Baltimore Yearly Meeting summer camp (up and down the Shenandoah Valley). For that, we got him a larger, more able bike . He took that with him when he "grew up" , The Jambo bike went into the storge shed. Now, Here it is, time to find it a new home. Any ideas? FB Market place? Scout Memorabilia site? Make me an offer? Tires hold air, sealed bearings, 15 speed Suntour deraileurs, it's a SCHWINN "RANGER" (!) made in china....

Looks like he is going to be there, then. He wasn't on the program anywhere, lol.
