Jambo Payment Schedule
Participants for the Cherokee Area Council 2010 Jamboree Contingent are strongly encouraged to make monthly payments to the Scout Office in order to secure their place and meet our deadlines for payment to Jamboree. Failure to meet the deadline may result in that participant being dropped from the contingent and their place filled by first up on the waiting list. Refunds, minus non recoverable costs, will only be made after that vacancy is filled and the new participant has paid the account up to date.
This money will be used for the Jamboree fee, Pre-Jamboree shakedown(s), Transportation, Equipment purchase (if needed) and transportation, Tour Package, meals and possibly spending money. If participants want to put more money on their account for spending money for touring and Jambo they can. The procedure for distribution of spending money will be discussed after we have solid costs on the tour.
Below are the deadlines that we have to meet.
Date Due Minimum paid on account per participant
July 1, 2009 $500
December 1, 2009 $1500
April 30, 2010 $2300
To meet the above deadlines payments will average out (after the initial $100 deposit) to almost $250 a month per participant from August 1, 2009 thru April 30, 2010. In addition to the Fall Popcorn sales commission, there will be Fundraiser opportunities throughout the months.
