Memory for Five Scouts at the 1955 World Jamboree
Joe Mercur writes from Niagara on the Lake about five local Boy Scouts joining 10,000 others at the World Jamboree. They toured Niagara Falls, viewed the Maid of the Mist, attended a Rotary Club dinner, and watched the American show with Indian dances. They visited the Toronto Exposition, traded keepakes with scouts from many nations, and fondly recall the trip as the greatest experience of their lives.
