*Jamboree on the Air*

*October 20, 2018*

Jamboree-on-the-Air, or JOTA, is an annual Scouting event sponsored by 
the World Organization of the Scouting Movement (WOSM) . Thousands of 
amateur radio stations around the world participate. If the conditions 
are right, it is common for over a hundred Scouting countries to talk to 
each other during the weekend.

In the United States, Cub Scouts, Brownies, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts 
exchange greetings with Scouts from other areas over amateur radio. The 
exchanges typically include information such as Name, Location, Scout 
rank, Hobbies, Age, etc.

Some exchanges lead to long-lasting friendships and the exchange of 
photos, badges, pins, and patches.  Boy Scouts attending meet two 
requirements for Radio Merit Badge and one requirement or Citizenship in 
the World Merit Badge and Cubs meet their International Partiicipation 
requirements for Arrow of Light.
