| Location – Camp Woods, Sylvan Lake, Alberta |
Camp Woods, Northern Lights Council, Alberta, has been chosen as the site for the 12th Canadian Jamboree in 2013.This Scouts-owned site is large enough to support an event of approximately 6,000 (5,000 participants and leaders and 1000 offers of service). It is situated on the shores of Sylvan Lake, boasting a small beach, boat house with docks, large field area and flat and slightly rolling terrain. It has an infrastructure already in place that would rival Camp Tamaracouta when it comes to accessible buildings, electricity, water systems, road access and campable space; including a developed campground-like park. ![]() It is within an easy 1 ½ hour drive from either Edmonton or Calgary airports, both of which are international in scale. It is serviced immediately by the Town of Sylvan Lake and then by the City of Red Deer (population 90,000; 20 minutes away). |
