Don’t forget that we are kicking off our Cub Scout Membership Growth season all next week with virtual join events Monday-Thursday at 7:00 PM. Unit representatives and perspective families will receive the zoom invitations on Saturday along with any final instructions on how to make the best impression. All members of the Greater Los Angeles Area Council family can help us to promote these events by putting up a yard sign and pitching a tent next to it in your front yards. Your efforts will help in recruiting the next generation of community leaders! For more information about our Zoom events or obtaining a yard sign, please email Gary Carroll at gary.carroll@scouting.org

The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has greatly altered the operations of the council service centers and Scout shops. While the Council Service Center remains closed under orders from the State, County, and local governments, a small staff remains to serve the Scouting community as much as possible.

During these challenging times, our council staff is prepared to provide the customer service and support to unit leaders via telephone, email or by appointment at the service centers. Click here to reach a member of our staff.

Our Scout Shops are also open Tuesday through Saturday in Pasadena and at the Cabrillo/San Pedro Location. The LA Scout Shop is available by appointment only or for curbside pickup Monday through Friday. Click here for the Scout Shop webpage.
