Every 2 years, environmentalists gather in Maryland for our JAMBOREE, a weekend of educational workshops, hiking, yoga, speakers, and live music. The Jamboree is where new and existing volunteers to come together to connect with nature lovers and advocates and learn about campaigns to protect our environment. 

The 2019 Jamboree will be October 11th-13th in Washington County at the Shepherd’s Spring Retreat and Conference Center. Will you join us for the weekend?

This year’s Jamboree is themed Outdoors for All: Get Inspired, Get Connected and Lead. We share the environment with everyone, and we stand together to explore, enjoy and protect our planet. Everyone should have access to clean air, water and the environment and be able to connect with nature.

We’re pleased to announce that Krish O’Mara Vignarajah will be our keynote speaker! Krish is President and CEO of Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service and previously served as Policy Director to First Lady Michelle Obama.

The weekend agenda will include a mix of outdoor activities, workshops on conservation issues like coal pollution and zero waste, as well as trainings on how to be an effective citizen lobbyist. Check out our growing list of confirmed programs here.

All are invited to join us at the 2019 Jamboree to get inspired, get connected and lead. Make connections with others in Maryland, become inspired and motivated about the direction of the Sierra Club, and learn how to engage and take the lead with us.
