California Inland Empire Council 2021 National Scout Jamboree Participant Electronics policy

If selected to attend the 2021 National Scout Jamboree, you will be required to adhere to this policy.

The Jamboree will encourage the use of cell phone communications and personal radios during the Jamboree. Radios can be used to listen to KBSA, the radio station at the Jamboree that is hosted by scouts attending the Jamboree.

The use of cell phones for phone calls and text messages brings some concern to the adult leaders of the units simply because most young scouts do not know what proper etiquette is and when it would be inappropriate to use their phones. This is evident when our own kids use them during school class or during our unit meetings.

The following guidelines will be used by the all Units of the CIEC Jamboree Contingent:

Type of device / Personal music e-Readers Phone Calls Text Messages KBSA communications (mp3 player) (Kindle, Nook, etc.)

When allowed Tent Time Tent Time Tent Time Tent Time Tent Time

Travel Time Travel Time During Travel Time Jamboree

When not allowed Unit Time Unit Time During Jamboree Unit Time Unit Time other than stated above.

Tent Time: This is 1 hour after going to bed at night during the Jamboree. The scouts must get rest to function the following day and therefore the 1 hour limit. This allows plenty of time for phone calls, texts and use of personal music players and e-readers. Phone calls during Not Allowed times are allowed ONLY with the permission of the Unit Leader or in an emergency.

Travel Time: This is the time we travel from one location to another on the bus or plane. Airplanes have specific rules about electronics and must be obeyed by all. Bus transportation may have down time that can be used to send text messages, listen to personal music players, or read e-books. If someone (an adult or youth leader) has the floor for announcements or information, all electronics are to be put away.

Unit Time: During meals, Unit meetings or patrol meetings, during any presentation or show.

ALL ELECTRONICS BROUGHT ARE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE SCOUT AND (1) MAY BE TAKEN AWAY BY LEADERS IF USED INAPPROPRIATELY AND (2) ARE BROUGHT AT YOUR OWN RISK OF LOSS, THEFT OR BREAKAGE. Scouts are advised to be diligent about keeping all personal items secure at all times.

NO SCOUT IS TO ALLOW THE USE OF THEIR ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT BY ANY OTHER SCOUT AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF OR THE CREW ADVISOR.
