20 000 Not Out
This month the GoJamboree! Forum reached 20 000 posts. The honour of posting the 20 000th post went to Samwise, who is also one of the top tent posters resident on GoJamboree! (May 07). She celebrated by making another post!
The GoJamboree! Forum has seen several changes in terms of layout and character, and has a dynamic population made up of members; who now represent all aspects of participation in the 21st World Scout Jamboree. From Day Visitors to Participants to Jamboree Organising and Delivery team members.
In recent weeks the number of users joining has also been drawn from a greater breadth, from all over the world. There is now a GoJamboree member in each of the different Scouting regions of the World, and the membership now covers the majority of the counties in the UK contingent to the 21st World Scout Jamboree.
The forum accumulating this latest milestone is also testament to the longevity of a forum whose initial idea came from one dark night in a seriously cool blacked out tent at EuroJam 2005. The forum began in a sense then, with a few friends getting together and wanting to keep in contact in the following months and the run up to the 21st World Scout Jamboree (in 77 days at the time of writing). It has subsequently grown in a framework for sharing thoughts, making contacts, developing idea, getting advice and building friendships in the run up to this event. Here’s to the next 20 000 posts!
