Announcing Long Beach Scouting Live! Did you see us make a birdhouse on Facebook? New Facebook Live activities for Scouts. This past Tuesday we built a birdhouse with Scout Executive John Fullerton. Watch the video here. Stay tuned for more topics coming.


April 3-5 - Sign up for different activities next weekend from e-learning courses on health, well-being and online safety to learning about different cultures. This special edition of JOTI is a safe space, connecting Scouts from around the world. You can play games and lead fun activities. Let's have fun!

Two weeks ago we posted 30-day challenges you can do from home to earn rank advancements. Two days ago we hosted a Facebook Live event making a birdhouse. Tell us here: What else would you like to see? What activities can we lead for you online?

Would you give a charitable donation to help us through these trying times? We humbly ask for your support to keep Scouting going locally. With very little camp revenue or Scout Shop sales, we could really use your help. Please give online or send a check.
merit badges

Check out these 58 merit badges that Scouts can complete from home. The merit badges on the list meet two main criteria: 1) They don't involve visits to public places or companies and 2) Their requirements can be completed indoors or in an average-size yard.

With information changing daily, we have posted all updates regarding events here. This page is where you can check for status updates on happenings and news as it relates to Scout meetings as well as resources that might be helpful to you.

We have decided to postpone Scout-O-Rama due to inability to gather in large groups. The event scheduled for Saturday June 6 will be re-scheduled for this fall. This could be a great time to invite first-time families as school is getting back into session.
