Jamboree Scouts show off their prized patch possessions
Like the dinner menu, a Scout’s favorite patch changes daily at the jamboree.
But this afternoon, I walked around asking Scouts to show off what they consider their coolest patch — for today, at least.
These were mainly national jamboree patches, though one Scout chose a Cub Scout day camp patch “because it has a smiling Bigfoot on it.”
Hey, who’s to say he’s wrong? Here are 13 patches Scouts picked out when I asked for their favorite. Before each photo I’ve listed the Scout’s first name, jamboree troop number, and the council represented on the Scout’s favorite patch:

Phil, B333, Greater Niagara Frontier Council

Ian, C121, Indian Nations Council

Joe, B153, Baltimore Area Council

Nick, A221, Connecticut Yankee Council

Ishaan, B115, Central Florida Council

Allie, visiting Venturer from Pee Dee Area Council, Grand Canyon Council (2005)

Ryan, D421, Twin Valley Council

Patrick, D421, Grand Canyon Council (2013)

Gabriel, D329, Redwood Empire Council

Bobby, D103, Teton Peaks Council

Oscar, D311, Yucca Council

Kameron, A404, Mt. Diablo Silverado Council
