context_page_description: The 2010 National Scout Jamboree was the 17th national Scout jamboree of the Boy Scouts of America and was held from July 26 to August 4, 2010 at Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia. The 2010 National Scout Jamboree celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America and was the last jamboree held at Fort A.P. Hill. With more than 50,000 in attendance, the 2010 National Scout Jamboree was the largest overall since 1973, and the largest at a single location since 1964. All subsequent jamborees have been held permanently at The Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve, the Boy Scouts of America's fourth High Adventure base. This was also the first jamboree to include Venturing programs.
context_section_description: The 2010 National Scout Jamboree featured two arena shows: one on July 28, and another one was held on July 31. Both arena shows featured Chief Scout Executive Bob Mazzuca. The first arena show featured several celebrities, including Sgt. Slaughter, Miss America Caressa Cameron, and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates. The main arena show featured Mike Rowe, host of Discovery Channel's Dirty Jobs, and musical performances by Alex Boyé, Honor Society and Switchfoot. The show ended with the largest fireworks display ever performed on a military base or at a national Scout jamboree. There was some controversy over President Obama not appearing, as he had chosen to pre-record his appearance on The View that day - instead leaving a video message congratulating the Boy Scouts of America on their centennial. (unconfirmed that taping the VIEW excluded him from the 10 day event.  please source.)
  At the 2005 jamboree, there were problems with a water shortage during the first arena show. This was not repeated in the second show or in those at the 2010 jamboree. Cases of water bottles were distributed everywhere on the arena seating area, with large stacks at the sides, back, and along the roads to the arena. In total, approximate three-quarters of a million bottles of water were placed in the arena during the 2010 National Scout Jamboree - in order to more effectively combat the risk of dehydration. On the way back to their camps from the second arena show after dark, some participants without flashlights had trouble avoiding running into extra cases of water bottles as they lay on the ground and the roads. A few others carried cases back to their camps because the water in the bottles tasted better than that distributed in the water system.
