Why be a Scout?

Scouting is an excellent way for youth ages 11 through 17 to get outdoors, develop leadership skills, give back through service projects, and experience personal growth while participating in fun challenges and adventures with friends.

Outdoor Adventure

We go hiking, biking, boating, skiing, camping, climbing, and more! We have fun year-round

Youth members choose and plan outings based on their interests. Adults are there to ensure safety and help with logistics

Leadership Development

Scouts are organized into small groups called patrols, where they learn teamwork, leadership, and responsibility

Youth are given opportunities to lead, manage, and make decisions, preparing them for future leadership roles

Service and Character

Scouts give back to their communities through service projects, developing empathy and civic engagement

The Scouting program is built around developing strong moral character

Personal Growth

Scouting encourages youth to set goals, overcome challenges, and develop their unique talents and interests

The Advancement program features merit badges and ranks which motivate scouts to learn and apply new skills
