The Official 21st Australian Jamboree website is: Get in the Game



ON-SITE PHOTOS FROM AJ2007

During the Jamboree we posted selected photos from the hundreds that we took each day.

NEW!!! Now we have almost 350 photos chosen from over 8,000 photos that we brought back from the Jamboree on three DVDs. These are available in our Photo Gallery.

We are still waiting to finalise a set of Troop photos. These should be available within the next couple of weeks.

Most of the photos that we have will be available later on a DVD. Keep watching this site to see what it will cost and how to order the DVD. This is NOT the same as the DVD that is going to be produced by the AJ2007 Jamboree Committee which you can already order using the form on the KEVIN page. (See Get in the Game.)

In addition, we have collected photos of all of our Gateways.


TASMANIAN CONTINGENT BADGES REISSUED

Many people collect a set of Contingent badges at the Jamboree. Unfortunately, Tasmania ran out of badges this time. However, the Tasmanian Branch has realised that there are still people looking for their badges and so they are going to make some more!

The cost will be $2.50 each plus 50 cents for postage, i.e. total cost of $3.00 per badge. Payment can be made by either cheque or postal money order only (made out to Scouts Australia Tasmanian Branch). Please complete the Order Form and mail it to:

Dcc South
PO Box 70

Note that to be fair there is a maximum of two badges per order.
