Cub Scout Leader Training: Hey cub leaders! We have training just for YOU. Our amazing team of volunteer trainers have put together a training specifically for Den Leaders, Pack Committee Chairs, and Cubmasters via Zoom later this month. This is a great opportunity to get up to speed on training... from home! Click the red button for more info and dates.

This Monday, May 25 - We are asking all Scouts to salute the American flag from their driveway, sidewalk, or home in Scouting uniform. At 3:00 pm local time, all Scouts around the country will salute to honor our nation's fallen heroes on this Memorial Day.

This year our aim is to introduce STEM programming into our Cub Day Camp experience. Please help us by taking this survey. Youths will earn requirements as they participate and work on hands-on projects throughout the week, safely online from home.

Tuesday, June 2 - Intro to Citizenship in the Community merit badge. Open to the first 20 Scouts with nominal $1 fee to ensure parent involvement. Sign up here. This will take place on Zoom at 7pm. We expect spaces will certainly fill up fast on this one. 

As a follow up to our summer camp information call on Zoom this past Monday, we have posted this FAQ. We are monitoring local, county, and state orders for more direction on opening summer programs for youth. Thank you to the 85 people who joined the call.

We are offering a pre-order run of limited edition face covering/masks. They are black with white logo, one size fits most adults. Get yours today, see masks here. Allow 3-4 weeks for production, pick up at the Scout Shop. Get them while you can.


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 activity revenue and very few Scout Shop sales, we could really use your help. Give online or send a check. 

Tomorrow, Friday May 22 at 5pm - Tune in with us on Facebook Live to do a Cub Scout art project! Scouts will do a hands-on project. Items needed: any painting materials. Paints, canvas, watercolor, paper brushes. Colors: Red, blue, brown, green, white, black.
