The main event of the year for ScoutLink is the World Scout Jamboree On The Internet (JOTI) which is held on the third weekend of October every year. During the 2007 JOTI ScoutLink broke its record and had 5165 simultaneous connections to the network.
ScoutLink is also the host of World Thinking Day chats in which the Girl Guides and Girl Scouts get together, rather like a mini-JOTI, and celebrate their Founders: Lord and Lady Baden-Powell.
For the past two years ScoutLink has also been the major host of the Asia Pacific Internet Jamboree (API-JAM) which is held during August each year and is organised by a different National Scout Association of the Asia Pacific Region each time. Australia played host in 2005; Japan in 2006.
During the European Jamboree, Eurojam, organised by the European Regional Office of the World Scout Bureau, ScoutLink had specific channels dedicated for the participants of Eurojam.
