OUR STORY
The Scout rank advancement & Outdoor programs work together to ensure that a Scout has opportunities to learn and apply Scout skills. The program includes weekly meetings where boys focus on skill building and monthly camping, hiking and/or backpacking trips that provide a safe space for Scouts to apply their newly learned skills.
