A Little Rain Couldn't Spoil the BOO-tiful Fun at Boo Fest!

October 28, 2026 | Greater LA Scouting, Scouting America

Boo Fest may have started off a little wet, but that didn’t stop our Cub Scouts from diving into all the fun! Rain boots were on, spirits were high, and our Scouts were ready to take on every activity. Thankfully, the skies dried up, but the spooky fun never stopped!

With more than 1,200 Cub Scouts and family members joining us, Boo Fest was a frightfully good time! From jumpy houses and the petting zoo to arts and crafts, range and target activities, there was something for everyone to enjoy. And when the sun went down, the fun continued with tent trick-or-treating!

A little rain, a lot of laughter, and memories that will last long after Halloween! Thanks to everyone who joined us for an unforgettable Boo Fest weekend!
