World JOTI/JOTA 2012

Dear Scouts,

It is that time of the year again, where we are having the World JOTI/JOTA!

JOTI (Jamboree on the Internet)/JOTA (Jamboree on the Air) is the cheapest or I would say a free form of making Scout friends from abroad! This is an opportunity where you can get to meet Scouts from overseas to understand their culture, scout movement and exchange contacts!

To participate in the JOTI, all you need to have is your own computer! From there, just follow this link:

Explore and discover what JOTI is and also, there are some activities to choose from. Most importantly, make sure you create your validation card to show to your friends that you have communicated with a Scout abroad and made new friends! Keep all the validation cards and you can post it on Facebook too!

JOTI comes in many forms of communications such as Skype, MIRC, ICQ, MSN, Facebook etc. It is just endless!

World JOTI is celebrated all over the world and it will from 20/10 - 21/10. Have a fun time!!

Yours in Scouting,
Benjamin Sho
Scout Leader
