Philippine Boy Scouts Jamboree in Calape, Bohol
About boy scouts are expected to participate in the Boy Scout provincial jamboree scheduled on November 28 to December 1 in Calape, Bohol.
According to Mayor Sulpicio Yu Jr., the Provincial Boy Scouts Council takes care of all the programs and activities during the jamboree while Calape, as host, prepares the venue, including the installation of water and electricity supplies.
He said, the jamboree will be attended by pre-school pupils, cub scouts, junior and senior scouts, and rover scouts.
Mayor Yu said the holding of the provincial jamboree in Calape is significant because the Boy Scouts of the Philippines is celebrating its Diamond Jubilee this year.
Another positive factor in this year’s provincial jamboree is the recent holding of the Scout Youth Forum at the BSP headquarters in Tagbilaran on October 10-12, he added.
In the forum, the scouts were taught better understanding of the roles they play in nation-building and the chance to acquaint themselves of the national problems through sharing of ideas with the scouts in a democratic atmosphere, and discover ways and means which they can contribute to the solution of these problems.
During the jamboree, there will be skills training, tuklas ng talino activity, explore Calape; tree-planting; hiking and community service, according to the mayor.
The venue for the jamboree will be the Municipal lot located at the back of the Calape BLISS Project and Central Visayas State College of Agriculture, Forestry and Technology (CVSCAFT) Campus.
After the jamboree, the mayor said, he will explore the possibility of developing the area into an open field sports arena, which will include a track-and-field oval, a soccer field, complete with bleachers and other facilities for sports spectators.
At the same time, Mayor Yu is appealing to all Calapeños to support this year’s Diamond Jubilee celebration of the BSP.
To defray various laudable projects of the BSP, a nationwide fund-raising activity is being implemented which aims to ask every household countrywide, including Calape to sell at least one raffle ticket at P20 each.
Dr. Yu said in the municipal level draw, he wants to double the one sack of Panda rice incentive for every 250 booklets sold, by the LGU as provided for by the BSP guidelines.
Non-winning tickets, will still have the chance to win because it shall be included in the national draw which will have the following prizes- -first prize, P1M cash gift; second prize, P500,000 cash gift; and third prize P250,000 cash gift.
Consolation prizes are the following; five cash gifts–P100,000; five cash gifts–P50,000; 10 cash gifts–P20,000; 10 cash gifts–P10,000; 10 cash gifts–P5,000.
According to a memorandum from the Provincial BSP Council, all municipalities and offices selling the raffle tickets are entitled to a 20-percent share on every booklet sold, as incentive.
