Additional patches, plus a commemorative DVD, and ScoutJam logo merchandise will be available for purchase at the ScoutJam Trading Post. You can place preorders when you register here on the Council website. 

Webelos II's who wish to camp with a host Troop for the weekend should register with that Troop and receive both patches.
