I've lifted this from the Community Channel website...
Scouts from nearly every country in the world come together between 27 July and 8 August to celebrate the 21st World Scout Jamboree and the movement's Centenary.
Some 40,000 Scouts will camp, live and work together at Hylands Park in Chelmsford for 12 days of celebration.
On 1st August Scouts in the UK and 28 million scouts worldwide will mark the dawn of a new century of scouting.
On Brownsea Island where scouting began, two representatives from each national scouts organisation - some 300 people - will renew their promise to scouting.
Community Channel presents live coverage of the key events of the jamboree, and will also broadcast regular updates from Mon 30 July.

Matt,
I've enjoyed reading your World Jamboree blog. During the 2005 National Scout Jamboree in the USA, we developed one of the first blogs for that event at "http://emeritbadges.blogspot.com". We also have a website at "http://www.emeritbadges.org" with plenty of Jamboree photos and instructional material for the Electricity and Electronics Merit Badges.
Will there be an opportunity for Scouts at the World Jamboree to work on activity and merit badges?
Does anyone know if this community tv broadcast can be viewed on the net....
Australia doesn't have access to this station that I know of...
Thanks
