This special event was held in 2003 at Disneyland Resort, Disney's California Adventure Park. It was a commemoration of the 1953 National Scout Jamboree at Irvine Ranch, Orange County, California. There is a plaque at Fashion Island marking the Jamboree. Here's the most interesting thing, in 1953 scouts actually camped in Anaheim on the property that would become Disneyland while they were on their way to the Irvine location or just visiting the jamboree.

Walt Disney, himself, was an active volunteer leader in Anaheim Scouting, American Scouting, and World Scouting.

The 2003 special event was coordinated with Orange County Council, BSA and with Disney company. Tents were setup within the park itself, The Grand Californian Hotel area and the Scouts again camped in the Disneyland Resort..

Some brief history: Around about 1920 Orange County Council, California (OCC) started to grow and grow. Finally in 1944 they got too big and too successful and divided into Northern Orange County Council #37 (NOCC) and Orange Empire Area Council (OEAC). NOCC changed their name in 1965 to North Orange Council #37 (NOC). In autumn of 1972 North Orange Council rejoined with Orange Empire Council (aka Orange Empire Area Council or OEC) to reform Orange County Council (aka OCC or OCBSA) #39, California. A short time later in 1973 Order of the Arrow Ahwahnee Lodge #430 of NOC merged with San Gorgonio Lodge #298 of OEC to form Wiatava Lodge #13 with their Cog Totem.
