This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

22nd World Scout Jamboree GeoCoin is a 22nd World Scout Jamboree GeoCoin Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

Trackable ItemIf you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

I had the coins minted on the occasion of the 22nd World Scout Jamboree and geocached / released them at the Jamboree site in Sweden itself.  My mission for these coins is that they embark on a journey of friendship and discovery around the world -- touching the lives of scouts everywhere -- and then be brought to the 24rd World Scout Jamboree at the Summit Bechtel Scout Reserve in West Virginia United, States of America (July 22 to August 2, 2019), and returned to me there.  I will  provide my contact information as we near the jamboree date.  Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to have this coin returned to me!

The purpose of a World Scout Jamboree is to encourage meetings between those from different cultures, religions, and countries and come to realize that even total strangers can become friends.  A Jamboree is a mini United Nations. 

More than 40,000 Scouts from more than 150 countries attended the 22nd World Scout Jamboree held on the fields of Rinkaby, not far from the town of Kristianstad, in the province of Skåne, in the south of Sweden.  Rinkaby was also the site of past Swedish national Jamborees, including 2001 which hosted 26,500 Scouts and the successful 2007 'Jiingiijamborii'.  The Jamboree site is a green grassy field, with old stone walls and groves of trees.
