South Texas Council and over

45,000 other Scouts begin the
hike to the Arena for the
opening show!

Arriving at the arena for the

opening ceremonies Wednes-
day, July 28, 2010. It took an
estimated 3 hours for all troops
to leave their sites to get sta-
tioned in the arena.

The opening ceremonies

were awesome! We got to
see Secretary of Defense
Robert Gates, Miss America,
a Survivor Contestant, an
Amazing Race Winner, Na-
tional OA Youth Chief,
Chief Scout Executive Bob
Mazzuca, the Army’s
Golden Knight’s parachut-
ists, Airforce Honor Guard
and much much more!

The Scouts exit

the arena ready
for the safest,
most fun, most
exciting Jambo-
ree ever!
