Interpretation

Main Stage evening programs will have interpreters available who will be interpreting the program into several different languages.  In order to hear the interpretations, tune into one of the following FM radio stations: TBA

  • Spanish
  • French
  • Portuguese
  • Mandarin – TBD
  • Italian
  • Korean

Radios from the Camporee come with brand new batteries, and they are also solar-powered.  Some radios come with headsets, but most do not, so please bring your own headset.  These radios will be handed out from 1:00pm to 6:00pm at the International Village on a first come first served basis.  (Preference will be given to international guests).  We ask that the leaders of each international group to please come and pick up radios for their groups.

Each person needing interpretation is encouraged to bring their own portable FM radio, just in case Camporee radios are not sufficient.

Interpreters Needed:

We need teams of male and female interpreters to cover several Main Stage programs throughout the Camporee. If you are interested in volunteering as a interpreter, please contact Freddy Rodriguez, Interpreter Coordinator.
