Setting the Example and Living the Scout Oath and Law at the Jamboree There are simple guides for members of the jamboree contingents—the Scout Oath and Scout Law. When Scouts are living up to the Scout Oath and Law, leaders can be sure that they are making a good impression. People will remember what Scouts do longer than they remember what they say. It is important that jamboree leaders review the way Scouts wear their uniforms—they must be clean and neat. This makes a favorable impression on people. Good leaders will set the example in proper uniforming. The Good Turn exemplifies friendship and brotherhood. The best public relations for Scouting is to "Do a Good Turn Daily." It is up to jamboree leaders to encourage each member of the troop to make good Scouting happen day by day, hour by hour, and minute by minute. Good public relations starts before the Scouts leave home, continues during their travels and while attending the jamboree, and is completed only after they have told the jamboree story to as many folks as possible back home.
