If AJ2025 was one of the best experiences you’ve had in Scouts, this is your chance to keep the Jamboree energy going.
Scouts NSW is looking for young people who attended AJ2025 in Maryborough to become Jambassadors for the next Australian Jamboree, happening in Elmore, Victoria in December 2027 and January 2028.
Jambassadors help spread the word about Jamboree, share what made AJ2025 unforgettable, and encourage more Scouts to get involved in AJ2028.
So… what actually is a Jambassador?
Think of it as being part storyteller, part hype team, part youth representative for Jamboree.
You’ll help promote AJ2028 across Scouts NSW by talking about your own experiences and helping younger Scouts see what Jamboree is really like, beyond the photos and videos.
That could include:
Speaking at Group, District or Region events (or webinars)
Sharing stories and memories from AJ2025
Helping create social media content
Answering questions from future participants
Building excitement for AJ2028
Who should apply?
You’d be a great fit if you:
Attended AJ2025, ideally as a youth participant
Still talk about Jamboree way too often (is there such as thing as too much, really?)
Enjoy connecting with people
Want to build confidence and leadership skills
Are excited to help others experience AJ2028
Whether you loved the activities, the friendships, the chaos, the camp food, or just the feeling of being part of something massive, that’s the kind of experience future Scouts want to hear about.
Why become a Jambassador?
Being a Jambassador is a chance to:
Grow your leadership and communication skills
Meet other passionate Scouts from around NSW
Be involved in the lead-up to AJ2028
Represent youth voice in promoting Jamboree
Stay connected to the AJ community between Jamborees
It’s also a pretty great way to keep the post-Jamboree spirit alive.
Applications are now open
