                        LETTER OF INVITATION



The Organizing Committee of the Sixth International Jamboree of Vietnamese
Scouting (THANG-TIEN VI) has the great
honor to invite you to its Open House at 2:00 P.M. on Sunday, July 20,
1997 at the George Mason Law School,  room 318,
3401 North Fairfax Drive,  Arlington, Virginia.

The Sixth International Jamboree of Vietnamese Scouting will take place at
Lake Fairfax Park, Virginia from June 28, 1998 to
July 1, 1998.   As of April 30, 1975, the  Vietnamese Scouting Association
ceased to exist in Vietnam.  However, its
movement is still alive in several countries.  Its overseas leaders
organized the first international jamboree of Vietnamese
Scouting in 1983 in France.  Since then, as a new tradition Vietnamese
scouts and leaders reunite every three years.  The
second, third, fourth, and fifth International Jamboree of Vietnamese
Scouting took place in Canada (1986), California (1990),
France (1993), and Australia (1995), respectively.   Approximately 800
participants from different countries are expected to
attend the upcoming Sixth International Jamboree.

The World Scout Bureau and the Boy Scouts of America (B.S.A.) have
strongly endorsed  THANG-TIEN VI.  The National
Capital Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America will host this event.
These supports bring great pride for the Vietnamese
community concerned with youth education.  The International Central
Committee of Vietnamese Scouting (I.C.C.V.S.) and a
large number of Vietnamese units in the United States of America as well
as other countries have been making great efforts to
assure the success of THANG-TIEN VI.

During the Open House, the Organizing Committee of THANG-TIEN VI will be
officially introduced and will present to you
the progress we have achieved so far.
The Open House will be presided over by Dr. Dao Vinh, the I.C.C.V.S.
Chairman and Mr. De Tan Nguyen, the Associate
National Director of the Urban Emphasis Program, B.S.A. National Office.
They will arrive from France and Dallas,
respectively, to welcome you at the Open House.

Yours in Scouting,
Nhan Thanh Vo
Chairman, Organizing Committee
