It used to be every year(i've been to every one since about 86) it's only been the last couple of years they haven't, I think they are struggling to get clubs to run it...

i guess location is an issue these days too

After the 2004 Jambo was cancelled they decided to make it every 2nd year.

Technically, the 2004 Jamboree was not canceled... it was postponed to 2005.

To my knowledge 4WD NSW & ACT has not deemed that the Jamboree be held every two years. They put out a call for club/s to come forward to run it each year... if no clubs come forward, not much can be done.

To date no clubs have shown an interest to run the 2008 Jamboree.

I've heard that the association is investigating if they should form a committee to look into how or if the 2009 Jamboree will be held, from what I've heard it sounds like it might be run by the association with help from several clubs.
In my opinion it's all become too much like a business, I doubt a proper Jamboree (run by 4wd nsw&act) will happen again in the near future.
I think in the future a club will step up and run a comp over the Easter weekend, something simular to a Jamboree, but it won't be sanctioned by
4wd nsw & act.

The thing you all forget is that if you are in an affiliated club you are 4wd nsw & act.
