  • 14th World Scout Moot in Quebec in 2013  (A February, 2011, response from International Department BSA to a question about BSA Venturing crews participating in the World Scout Moot was:
  "Right now the answer is “no” as we are waiting proof of a non-alcohol event.  If we do participate – we are not certain if it will be a national contingent policy or if individual Crews can attend on their own… we have not heard this decision from Canada to date.")
  • 24th World Scout Jamboree in West Virginia in 2019
