"Clean camping practices encompass everything from personal hygiene and cookware cleaning to water purification systems and human waste disposal. Remember, once you're in the woods, no municipal water utilities will do the dirty work for you. You may have seen the words "Leave No Trace" on the packaging of CAMPING GEAR, in books, or on Internet trail guides, but these are not merely words of encouragement. The Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics has developed seven principles designed to keep the wilderness as it is for generations to come, and should be strictly followed and kept in mind during all camping activities. This includes anything you do to keep yourself and your camp clean." (EMS Schools website). Very Good+ .

Referred to as "the Jamboree", "Jambo", or NSJ, Scouts from all over the nation and world have the opportunity to attend. They are considered to be one of several unique experiences that the Boy Scouts of America offers. The first jamboree was scheduled to be held in 1935 in Washington, D. C. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Scouting, but was delayed two years after being cancelled due to a polio outbreak. The 1937 jamboree in Washington attracted 25,000 Scouts, who camped around the Washington Monument and Tidal Basin. The event was covered extensively by national media and attended by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good .
