第十三屆世界童軍大露營

Set in the foothills of Mount Fuji, the 13th World Scout Jamboree will be considered by many to have been aptly numbered, for it attracted an unwelcome visitor in the shape of Typhoon Oliver

第十三屆世界童軍大露營於 1971 年 8 月 2 日至 10 日 在日本富士山腳下的 朝霧高原（Asagiri Heights） 舉行。這場盛會因為一次突如其來的強颱風——奧莉芙颱風（Typhoon Olive）——而成為童軍歷史中最令人難忘的一頁。

​

The 13th World Scout Jamboree, held from August 2 to 10, 1971, at Asagiri Heights near Mount Fuji in Japan, is remembered for the dramatic impact of Typhoon Olive. This event brought together 23,758 Scouts from 87 countries, but their experience was significantly disrupted by the typhoon, which struck just days into the Jamboree. The storm brought torrential rains and gale-force winds, turning the campsite into a sea of black mud and forcing the evacuation of 16,000 Scouts to shelters for 48 hours. Despite these challenges, the Scouts showed remarkable resilience.

共有 來自 87 個國家的 23,758 名童軍 參與這次大露營。然而，活動開始不久，颱風便襲擊營地，帶來滂沱大雨與強勁狂風，整個營區瞬間變成一片泥濘的黑色海洋。由於天候惡劣，主辦單位不得不緊急疏散 16,000 名童軍 至臨時避難所，並在那裡度過了 48 小時的風雨之夜。

​

Even with the adverse weather, the Jamboree was able to proceed with some planned activities once conditions improved. These included a World Scout Forum, expeditions up Mount Fuji, and an International Evening featuring displays of national skills, dancing, and songs. The experience, though difficult, emphasized the strength and unity of the Scouting community across the world.

儘管面臨極端挑戰，童軍們展現了令人敬佩的堅毅與團結精神。風雨過後，大露營仍成功恢復部分活動，包括世界童軍論壇（World Scout Forum）、富士山登山探險，以及充滿文化交流氣息的國際之夜（International Evening），各國童軍藉由舞蹈、歌唱與技藝表演，展現民族風情與互相理解的精神。

​

The Jamboree was a testament to the perseverance and spirit of the Scouts, who managed to make the most of the situation despite the severe weather conditions caused by Typhoon Olive. It remains one of the most memorable Jamborees in Scouting history.

這次大露營雖因颱風而艱辛，但同時也成為一次 考驗毅力與團隊精神的難忘經歷。正如許多人所說，這「第十三屆」世界童軍大露營的編號或許象徵著挑戰，但更見證了童軍不畏困難、堅持到底的精神。

它至今仍被視為 童軍運動史上最具象徵意義與啟發性 的一屆大露營。
