REQUIREMENT FOR INSURANCE
Scouts Canada requires that everyone has travel insurance.  They have no minimum requirement or recommendation.

The CMT strongly advises that everyone carry a card (laminated is best) in their pocket that has the phone number and policy number for their insurance provider. Many insurance companies require a phone call prior to being admitted into the hospital. Having this information on your person will help avoid any issues with the claims. In-charge Scouters may have to provide a credit card initially, to provide a short-term deposit to the hospital if your Youth or a Scouter need medical assistance. The insurance company should reimburse this in a timely fashion.

You can opt to purchase insurance through any provider. If utilizing a provider outside of Allianz, you will be responsible for contacting your insurance provider in the event of an incident. If the insurance policy does not cover the medical issue, then the parents or injured Scouter will be responsible for charges incurred.
The CMT may be able to use the modest emergency fund to help cover a temporary charge where the insurance company is Allianz.

For more information on insurance recommendations, see Allianz Travel Insurance PDF  

Sweden26 Canada Contingent Group 

SJ26CA will use WhatsApp for a primary contact tool. Please use the above link to connect with our WhatsApp Group. 

This group offers multiple group chat opportunities for Leaders, Participants, and Guardians. 

As our group has youth and adults that interact with each other, we ask that identifiable names be used in the chat. 

We finally had communication from Sweden! 
- Sweden has informed us that there is no quota for how many people we can bring to Jamboree , and there is no youth to Scouter ratio.
- The final cost has not been set as of yet but it is expected to be close to what we have budgeted for. 
- CMT has pushed back the first payment date to October 24th due to delays with confirmations from Sweden and the completions of the Canadian registration system.  This system should be up and running in the next few weeks. If not, a spreadsheet will be utilized to capture data for the to fill into the registration system at a later date.
