Event Logo Mark
The logo mark represents Scouts stepping into the future, holding high the flag of the event theme "Challenge". The "19" in the center represents a "step" toward the future. It combines a "9" shaped like a map pin indicating the host location, Jinsekikogen. The overall design depicts Scouts energetically active in a heavenly campground surrounded by a sea of clouds, expressed in a patch-like style. This logo captures the atmosphere of the Jamboree where participants challenge themselves and grow together with friends in nature.
