JAMBOREES
1920 WORLD JAMBOREE
The Olympia, London, England
​
Star Scout Joe Haskell, of Troop 1, and Robert Sims (St. Elmo) from Troop 19, were selected to represent the Chattanooga Council at the 1920 World Jamboree at no expense to themselves. They were selected to participate based on merit, a practice many Councils participated in, so that only Scouting’s best would be present.
The Scouts received a brand-new uniform of the latest design and complete new equipment. Haskell, a fifteen-year-old freshman at Chattanooga High School, was the highest ranking Scout in the city because Eagle Scout Richard Savory (Savery) was in Michigan and Eagle Scout Paul Bush was in Mexico.
On June 30, 1920, Haskell and Sims left for New York, from where they sailed for England. They joined the other American Scouts in New York on July 2, and travelled to Fort Hamilton where they were outfitted and trained, and then sailed on July 5 to England on the transport Pocahontas, which was furnished by the government without cost to the boys.
While in New York, the boys paraded up Fifth Avenue to Sheeps Meadow in Central Park with a fifty-five piece Boy Scout band from Denver in the lead. The drum major was only thirteen years old. The scouts passed in review before Col. Colin H. Livingstone, president of the Boy Scouts of America; Maj. Lorillard, chairman of the reception committee; and Borough President Henry H. Curran, who welcomed the boys to the city. Dr. John H. Finley, state commissioner of education, was also in the reviewing party. Curran told the boys that he hoped America would never again have to prepare for war, but if that time came, it was these boys that one day might have to fight. With that end in mind, Curran said he knew the scouts would uphold the military and athletic traditions of the United States, urging them to ‘lick everybody’ they met in the competition at the Jamboree. The Scouts dined that evening at the Waldorf-Astoria.
The participation fee was $200, but Haskell’s fellow troop members at First Baptist Church donated his expenses. Of the nearly 310,000 Boy Scouts in America, Haskell and Sims were two of only 304 to participate in the Olympia, England Jamboree, which ran from July 30 to August 7, 1920. The boys enjoyed the greatest Scouting event that had ever taken place, the first World Jamboree.
In September 1920, Haskell described to a local church group his visit to London and subsequent visits to the battlefields of France and Belgium.

1929 WORLD JAMBOREE
Arrowe Park in Upton, Merseyside, United Kingdom
​
On July 20, 1929, 237 Boy Scouts that departed New York for Birkenhead, England to participate in the World Jamboree. Among them were three scouts and one leader from Chattanooga—Billy Gauntlett of Troop 1, First Baptist Church; John Wallace Page of Troop 4, First Christian Church; John Sharp Vass of Troop 20, St. Elmo M. E. Church; and Elbert E. Spriggs,Scoutmaster of Troop 28 in Chattanooga. Several boys from other southern states traveled with the group.
After participating in the World Jamboree, in which boys of forty-three countries took part, the group visited London, Brussels, Amsterdam, and Paris. They then sailed from Havre, France on August 20th and arrived back in New York on August 28th. About 1,500 boys from the United States attended the Jamboree. The local scouts with the other southern scouts were given week long training at Camp Tsatanugi under the leadership of Scoutmaster Spriggs.
As the U.S. Boy Scouts were departing from New York, a group of 100 communist youth (many from Russia) staged a demonstration on the Cunard docks of the Hudson River, delaying the sailing of the liner, "Samaria" with the scouts, for about twenty minutes. The communists jeered at the Boy Scouts denouncing the scout movement as being "supported by the bosses to create cannon fodder." Several of the communist youth were arrested and their banners thrown into the river.
Local Scout Wallace Page wrote his parents while at the Jamboree and among other things said, "It is a great thing to be here with so many scouts. It’s a great brotherhood to be able to mix and sometimes speak with foreign scouts. I can hardly realize that I am here with 50,000 scouts. Today the Prince of Wales came into the American camp and he is now at the great stadium receiving some of the groups. The whole camp covers a five-mile square and the tents are close together. The Americans are very comfortably situated, we sleep on cots in large tents, but most of the other scouts sleep on the ground."
John Wallace Page, son of Thomas Page, joined the Coast Guard. He had been both an Eagle Scout and a Sea Scout.

1937 NATIONAL JAMBOREE
Washington, D.C.
​
A strong contingent of fifty-two Chattanooga Boy Scouts and leaders attended the first National Jamboree in Washington, D.C. from June 30 to July 9, 1937. Scout Executive Charles K. Peacock led the group along with Carl D. Scheibe, Scoutmaster of Troop 2 and Joe C. Wagner, Scoutmaster of Troop 60. One of the boys, fourteen year old Dan Thomas won his trip to the Jamboree by submitting the best essay to the Chattanooga Times. Scout Thomas wrote a daily news story for the Times while at the Jamboree. Here are some excerpts from his articles:
​
-
"From our tents we can see the Washington Monument in the distance and we are almost surrounded by the beautiful Potomac River.
-
"Assistant Scoutmaster Joe Wagner and Winford White, Jimmy Whitaker, John Harsch, Charles Niles, and Dicky Andrews finished our exhibit of model fires and it is ready for inspection."
-
"The troops that passed inspection were invited to see the Washington Senators play the Boston Red Sox at Griffith Stadium in the afternoon. Our scouts were among the lucky ones!"
-
"The Jamboree opened unofficially tonight with a campfire meeting. There we learned songs and yells to help promote the spirit of good fellowship among the boys."
-
"The Jamboree is on. It was opened officially at 9 o’clock this morning when bombs were fired at Washington’s monument. At the first bomb, scouts in their camps all over Washington came to attention. The second bomb two minutes later signaled the scouts to prepare their color guard. At the third bomb, which was heard all over Washington, 25,000 Boy Scouts stood at salute while our national colors were raised in the thirteen sectional camps at the Jamboree."
-
"The Chattanooga scouts enjoyed the trip (to Mount Vernon) very much and several took pictures of the house. We saw Washington’s sword and hunting horn. Of most interest was the bedroom where Washington died."
-
"Tonight we assembled for the first time at the huge arena at the foot of the Washington Monument. It was one of the biggest thrills a boy could have to be part of over 25,000 scouts assembled together at one time. Greetings were sent by President Roosevelt and Sir Baden-Powell, Chief Scout of the World. Our own national president, Walter Head, and Chief Scout Executive James E. West greeting us."
-
"Today has been one long day of sight-seeing. This morning the scouts could go where the wanted to in the city. Small groups went to the Smithsonian Institution, the new National Museum, and the Library of Congress. This afternoon nearly the whole troop went to the zoo."
-
"Tonight we had another campfire meeting. Our guest of honor was Paul Siple who went to the South Pole with Byrd. Dick Frost from England spoke to us and gave us a message from Lord Baden-Powell. The meeting was a potlatch, and the troops invited boys from other countries."
​​
One of the Chattanooga contingent leaders, Scoutmaster Carl D. Scheibe said the forty-three white scouts and nine Negro scouts who attended the Jamboree carried small rifle balls from Chickamauga Battlefield, Indian arrowheads, neckerchief slides, and other articles representative of Chattanooga to Washington to "swap" for horned toads from Texas, baby alligators from Florida, and seashells from the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. The most popular Washington institution with the scouts was the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) where their fingerprints were taken and place in the civilian files. J. Edgar Hover, FBI director, attended personally to the distribution of hundreds of souvenirs among the scouts. Scheibe said the most impressive moment of the Jamboree was on the night of June 30th when the entire delegation repeated the Scout Oath lead by National Scout Executive James E. West.

Ward, Jr., Linton Waterhouse, Winford White, Robert Weaver, Jimmy Whitaker, Howard Pratt, Robert Brooks, Roden Davisworth, and Jerry Sprayberry.
For the "Negro" contingent, the leader was James L. Jenkins. The Scouts were Christopher Morton, Judson Tatum, Herbert Robbs, Willie Gurley, Joe White, James Auston (or Auston James), Allen Rucker, and Wilbur Scruggs.
​
The white contingent was part of Region V, Section K, Troop 13. The "Negro" contingent was part of Region V, Section K, Troop 34.
