More than 3,200 Scouts had an AWESOME Scouting experience at Cradle of Liberty Summer Camps this year! Scouts at Resica Falls had a chance to enjoy the beautiful Pocono Mountains while earning merit badges, while Cubs, Scouts, and Explorers learned about Science and the outdoors at our STEM Adventure Day Camp and Community Day Camps!

We want to say THANK YOU to all of our Camp Staff and volunteers who made the Summer possible for our campers!

Make plans to join us for Summer 2024 - Resica Registration is open now!

Get excited for the most fun you can have as a Cub Scout this Fall - join us for FALL FEST!! Cubs will have a chance to carve pumpkins, go bouldering, shoot BB's and Archery, learn about STEM, make crafts, and more!

Best part - bring a friend, because new Cubs attend for free!

NYLT – the National Youth Leadership Training program – is Scouting’s premier leadership development course for young people in our program. NYLT works to instill core leadership concepts and offer fundamental leadership tools and techniques applicable in a variety of real-work contexts, especially in their home Troop, Crew or Ship. 

Final course of 2023 will be offered Sept. 29-Oct. 1 and Oct. 6-8 (consecutive weekends)

The Cradle of Liberty Council sent nearly 220 Scouts and Scouters to the National Jamboree last month for a once-in-a-lifetime Scouting experience at The Summit in West Virginia!

It was an exciting 10 days of program for all who attended - check-out all of the fun that Scouts from across the country had on the Jamboree Facebook Page!
