Fundraising for the SWC Contingent

A journey to the National Jamboree takes a bit of money to cover all the supplies, transportation, food and training necessary to make it an Amazing Adventure for All who attend. You'll find that it is well worth it. We understand that coming up with the funds to participate can be a challenge for many of us.

The SWC Contingent committee is planning a number of ways in which participants can supplement the cost of attending the 2023 contingent. Learn more about them below.

We also encourage participants to be creative and find ways on their own to raise funds for the trip.
