Lunch items in the grocery stores will be cases of individual products
Assistant scoutmaster (adviser in charge of physical arrangements) oversees preparation of meals. Menu planning will be essential to ensure grocery shopping is completed quickly and efficiently.

Cooking Equipment: The unit equipment package will include propane stoves and fuel. Do not bring cooking appliances, fuel tanks, or fuel.

13. Meals III
Special Diets--The Jamboree Food Team will aid Scouts, leaders, and staff who have special dietary requirements in the following ways:
The grocery store will include kosher, halal, gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan diets products.  
During registration, Scouts and leaders have been asked about dietary preferences or restrictions. Information is used to determine what foods are stocked at the grocery stores.
Jamboree may not address all dietary restrictions (e.g., low-calorie and low-carbohydrate, citrus fruit, dairy, eggs, fish, nuts/peanuts, and shellfish). Individuals will need to consider this, and avoid such items.
Anyone with special food requirements for medical reasons, or personal dietary beliefs, must make their own arrangements to meet those needs by bringing nonperishable food.

14. Cell Phones
Scouts will have them. Parents might know of an incident before leaders do.
YPT: Remind scouts about rules at latrines.
