54th Annual J.O.T.A. (Jamboree on the Air)
This year's Jamboree on the Air or JOTA, as it is usually called, will take place once again at Camp Roosevelt in Eddington the weekend of October 15-16. Friday night is rather calm as Scouts settle into their campsite for the weekend. Saturday brings with it a day full of possibilities. All day and night in the old lodge there will be ham radios and possibly computers humming away as Scouts are able to talk to people around the world. Each year on the third weekend in October ham radio operators around the globe meet on the air for this worldwide jamboree. In years past Scouts have talked to people in Australia and Antarctica among the locales that tuned in for the fun. This time of year is a great time for hiking around Katahdin Scout Reservation. Great for a day full of outdoors activities.
