The contingents were
encouraged to have Scouts perform something representative of their
countries at the Jamborette.
The Scouts performed at campfires, at the Staff Club and in an
International Show at the Kastle.

Pacific Explorer Scouts from British Columbia, Canada, do a square
dance... |
...and build a human pyramid. |
Scout dancers |
This Canadian Scout sang two very funny songs by the Canadian group
"the Arrogant Worms" - "I am cow" and
"Canada is really big" |
Gibraltar Sea Scouts did their traditional "Bamba", and
got the rest of the Scouts up dancing with them. |
They did the same at the Staff Club a bit later that night. |
Hong Kong Scouts danced and demonstrated martial arts |
|
This Canadian magician's audience volunteer appears to be having
second thoughts. |
Russian Scouts did a song. In Russian, of course, so I have no idea
what it was about, other than wearing their neckies as
babushkas. |
The South African Scouts and Steven, their leader, taught the
Scouts an African Dance. They got most of the audience and staff up
and dancing with them. |
|
BSA Scouts from Connecticut Yankee Council sang and played tuned
plastic tubes - a/k/a "Boomwhackers" |
|
Central New York contributed two singers: Aidan, who was in our
contingent... |
...and his sister Callie, who was with Longhouse Council's
contingent. |
Japanese Scouts did a very athletic dance |
|
Scottish piper |
Jack Barry, who was in charge of the entertainment, heard this very
talented Scottish Scout singing in a subcamp and convinced her to
perform in the Staff Club. |
Scottish Scout singers - probably easier to memorize the words, but
if you've got a book... |
