Everyone will be screened upon entry. Please note the following security protocols:
Keep Bossier Beautiful partners with the Jamboree to launch its seasonal litter-prevention and environmental education outreach.
Because the Jamboree brings together high school athletes, student groups, and thousands of local spectators, Keep Bossier Beautiful leverages the event to execute several key community initiatives including litter prevention education, youth and student engagement, and venue waste management.
The Bossier City Lions Club Football Jamboree was first held on August 27, 1954, featuring eight teams across four games. For 73 years, the Jamboree has remained a signature community tradition, bringing together schools, families, alumni, and supporters from across Bossier Parish. Generations of local residents have participated in or supported the event during their high school years.
Proceeds from the event are used to support parish high schools, fund football programs, and provide college scholarships. The Bossier City Lions Club also supports vision screening for children, provides eyeglasses to those in need, and aids both the Louisiana Lions Eye Foundation and the Louisiana Children's Camp for children with special needs.
