"The 2013 National Jamboree was truly a historic event," says Chief Scout Executive Wayne Brock. "There had never been a Jamboree like this one – partly because there had never before been a Jamboree site like the Summit Bechtel Reserve."

"We are the soundtrack of the jamboree," says Michael J. Thorp, chairman, general manager and program director of QBSA Jamboree Radio.Thorp, who has been a radio program director outside of Scouting for 40 years, organizes QBSA's daily programs.
"We give each Scout who wants to be on the air a 15-minute show," says Thorp. Througout the jamboree, Scouts and Venturers have enjoyed the opportunity to host a 15-minute show after a 30-minute class on what to report and how to run their show.

There were corporate CEOs and philanthropists, teachers and scientists, artists and Olympians. All contributing to a great jamboree.
