Helpful Hints and Tips
Jamboree Mobile App
Download for IOS, Android, and all web-enabled smartphones. A one-stop resource for schedules, speakers, exhibitors, many syllabus articles, maps.
JamboFREE
Thursday sessions are free to the public as part of the SCGS mission to "...provide instruction in accepted and effective research techniques."
Pink and Blue Sheets
The most important tool you will use during the weekend. Legal-sized pink (Jamboree) or blue (Genetic Genealogy and Family History) sheets give you the full conference schedule, information on parking, scanning, book signings, food and a map of the Marriott.
Syllabus
All paid registered attendees receive a free digital syllabus that includes all three conferences. Printed copies are available for purchase while quantities last. Syllabus handouts are available on the Jamboree App when authorized by the speaker. Copyright laws apply.
Bag Inserts - Don’t throw away those Show Specials!
We’ve asked every Exhibitor to offer you a show special that beats anything you can get on the internet. Many have put their show specials on their conference bag flyers. So, don’t just chuck those papers in the nearest bin! Take a moment to see who has the special you’ve been waiting for … maybe one you haven’t thought of yet!

Get Social!
- Social Media - Join the fun on Twitter using #Jamboree2018, or #SCGS2018 @scgsgenealogy, or post to the Jamboree Facebook page. We love Jamboree selfies!
- Social Media Lounge in the Exhibit Hall - Perfect posting place! Stay tuned for tomorrow's blog post for important details!
- Network, talk to your neighbors, the speakers, exhibitors, and vendors and say "hi". Don't forget to bring along plenty of business cards to exchange with everyone.
Volunteer
Jamboree volunteers are a special lot. They have devoted time and effort to bring you the best conference possible. Stop by the Volunteer station to join in the fun! If it weren't for the volunteers, there wouldn't be a Jamboree!

Be Kind
Jamboree draws family historians and genealogists, volunteers, speakers, exhibitors from all over. Everyone is trying to have a great conference. Treating one another as we would like to be treated will ensure that we all have a great experience.
