Popcorn Kickoffs

Want to know more about selling popcorn! This is the only fundraiser you will need all year. Last year, a new unit started selling popcorn and earned $9200 in commissions. This also resulted in an additional $9000 earned for council activities and camperships such as summer camps, merit badge classes, PWD clinics, etc.

Scouting America Launches New Merit Badge at National Jamboree

Competitive Gaming

Where passion for gaming meets leadership, learning, and the future of technology.

The Competitive Gaming merit badge introduces Scouts to one of the fastest-growing industries in the world—esports and modern gaming—while reinforcing the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law in digital spaces. This badge blends fun, education, personal growth, and real-world career exploration, empowering Scouts to become responsible digital citizens and informed participants in today’s gaming culture.

Inspire the Next Generation of Outdoor Conservation Leaders

Every time we step into the backcountry, we leave an impact—whether we’re walking on fragile terrain, building campfires, using the trail, or collecting souvenirs. The Leave No Trace Level 2 Instructor Course provides a globally recognized framework to help us minimize that impact and preserve the wild places our Scouts love.

Recognized worldwide across land management agencies like the National Park Service, US Forest Service, and the broader outdoor industry, this comprehensive training goes beyond basic trail etiquette. It equips you with the skills and confidence to teach low-impact principles effectively to both youth and adults.

What You’ll Gain & Accomplish:

• Official Certification: Earn your certification from Scouting America and Leave No Trace.
• Expanded Teaching Authority: Graduates are qualified to conduct official Level 1 Instructor Courses (2-day) as well as Awareness Workshops for Scouts, adult leaders, and local units.
• Youth Leadership Support: Gain the practical teaching strategies needed to mentor troop and crew Outdoor Ethics Guides, or to start your Cub Scouts on their natural world involvement with the Outdoor Code and Conservation
• Elevated Conservation Skills: Master advanced techniques, from site selection to waste management and ethical travel.

Help your Scouts take true ownership of the Outdoor Code, minimize their footprint on the trail, and build a lasting culture of stewardship across your unit and council.
