At least a quarter of a million of good deeds or: "be prepared" for an international scouting culture in the Ruhr Metropolis. The Deutsche Pfadfinderschaft St. Georg (DPSG – German Scout Association of St. George) is Germany's largest catholic child and youth association. Since 2007, DPSG Essen has already been active on the paths of the Capital of Culture, has been discovering and exploring specialities and characteristics of the home region and has thus cultivated its own scouting culture in a contemporary way.
But the Ruhr scouts are also out and about throughout Europe to explore international scouting culture. For example, they made contact with scouts of the co-Capitals of Culture Pécs and Istanbul and agreed on a long-term co-operation. From 6th to 22nd August 2010, the St. George scouts from the diocese Essen invite all the European partners to an international ruhrjamb.2010. In a - certainly - giant camp, the participants can experience internationality right by the campfire, when scouts and guides will be roaming together through the cultural metropolis and enjoy culture as an adventure. What is special about "move to 10" is an exchange and learning by doing on all levels: on a social, cultural and spritual scale. All Ruhr scouts will be the hosts and everybody is invited to experience firsthand both an international and a typical regional scouting culture on the 14th August 2010.
