Scouts BSA units will be camped in areas based on gender specified portables (showers/restrooms). Camp areas will be separated by barriers such as roads or swells so that campsites are defined. Council contingents (multiple units/partial units) can travel to the jamboree together as long as BSA policy is followed.

For partial units they will be grouped with other like units prior to the jamboree to insure minimum BSA requirements/policies are met.

Ex. a Scouts BSA female group of 2 adults and 8 youth can travel to and from the jamboree with Scouts BSA male counterparts but when they arrive at Jamboree they will be camping in separate units.
