Note: Please pass this to any Scout leader you know in Will, DuPage,
Grundy, Kankakee, or Kendall counties.  Thanks, N4AE.

Jamboree on the Air is the largest Scouting event in the world.  It
takes place every year with over 1-million Scouts participating from
over 150 countries around the world.

Scouts take part in Jamboree on the Air using Amateur Radio.  Scouts
connect over the radio even if they don't speak the same language. 
Scouts can talk or use computers to communicate.

Unlike other Scout Jamborees, this one is open to all Scouts.  It
includes Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Ventures, Explorers and Sea Scouts.

*On The Air on October 15th from Shorewood, Illinois*

Rainbow Council's Radio Scouting Committee will have several stations on
the air.  Scouts from Will and surrounding counties can participate all
day on October 15, 2016.  The stations will be on the air from 9:00 AM
until Sunset at Hammel Woods in Shorewood, Illinois.

There is no fee and you can visit any time for as long as you want.
