[[Jamboree on the Air]], known by its acronym '''JOTA''', is an international Scouting and Guiding activity held annually; it is on the third full weekend in October. First held in conjunction with the fiftieth anniversary of Scouting in 1957, it was devised by Leslie R. Mitchell, a radio amateur with the callsign G3BHK. It is now considered the largest event scheduled by the World Organization of the Scout Movement annually. | [[Jamboree on the Air]], known by its acronym '''JOTA''', is an international Scouting and Guiding activity held annually; it is on the third full weekend in October.
