Jamboree site near foothills to Rockies by Robin Nutbrown Lieutenant-Genera] A. Chester Hull of Boy Scouts of Canada has been appointed the Camp Chief for the 5th Canadian Jamboree by the National Council. General Hull has called 20,000 Scouts, Venturers and Scouters to join him at C. J. '81 which will be held in Kananaskis Country, Alberta from July 1 to 10, 1981. The Jamboree site is located in the foothills of the Rookies, about 80 km west of Calgary. It is accessible from the Trans Canada Highway and adjacent to the Bow Valley Provincial Park. It is a_ picturesque location for a Jamboree. New Spirit Reg. $11.95 Sun Isle Reg. $15.95 *8.95 $11.95 Invitation Reg. $25.95 High Society Reg. $28.95 Free estimates-expert installation Mastercharge & Chargex accepted Open Mondays $18.95 $21.95 Finesse Reg. $16.95 Vanessa Reg. $17.95 $12.95 $13.95 The campsite is surrounded on three sides by mountains. The open side, to the east, faces Calgary. The Kananaskis River, a fast-flowing, glacier-fed stream, is adjacent to the Jamboree site. Upstream, a_ pleasant hike away, is Barrier Lake. Park officials report that long ago _ the Jamboree site was where two glaciers met and the soil on the site was deposited when the glaciers receded. The area is quite dry, with brittle vegetation. Because of our great concern for the en- vironment, experts have been brought in to check the site. Valuable information will be made available for all participants on how to protect this vegetation during the Jamboree. Programs and ac- tivities are now' being designed to be suitable to the area and to be a challenge to those in- volved. The Calgary Stam- pede will be visited from some 20,000 Scouts, Venturers and Scouters. The Calgary Stampede is visited each year by hundreds and thousands of people. This means that, with C. J. '81 just over an hour's drive away, we can expect to see many of these visitors at the Jam- boree. Many": Scout Troops and Venturer Com- panies in our area are planning to attend thid gala event. In fact, some groups are in the process of raising funds to help them defray the costs of the trip. It is a great challenge for groups to take on but their efforts will be thoroughly fulfilled.
