   You AND your parent will need to have a MyScouting or Summit account to access the application.  You can create a new one if needed (see Application Instructions document on the left).  You will also need to have your BSA membership number and a digital photo headshot for the process.  Qualifications and mandatory terms for youth Troop participants can be found under Documents on the left.

Three new easy steps will be required before accessing the jamboree applications.

1. Once selecting “Apply Now” to submit an application, an applicant will login and then be required to read and agree to the Be Prepared policy (see document to the left).  This policy covers the details of the jamboree fitness requirements, alcohol and tobacco policies.

2. You will then have a drop down box with the applications you're eligible for based on your BSA membership record. You can select one category only. (Should the category you're anticipating not be present, contact the Council office to confirm your membership record).

3. For program, security and medical identification purposes, every applicant (regardless of the age and/or category in which they wish to apply) will be issued a photo ID upon check-in. It will be necessary for you to upload a current photo of yourself.  Instructions will be located on the page to direct you through the photo upload process. The photo can be from any venue (school, sports, Scouting, etc.) as long as it is a current headshot (not full body) and clearly shows only yourself. Once the photo has been submitted, you will then have access to the first page of the application.
