Our work is too important for us and the intrinsic reward we receive when helping others and doing a good turn. Reach out if you need help and #KeepCalmScoutOn.

MEMBERSHIP AND SPECIAL EVENTS

Spring has roared in like a lion, as we patiently wait at home, inside, distant from family and friends for the peaceful lamb. The challenges of keeping your pack or troop active are very real; but there are so many resources out there-virtually! “Scouting at Home” is the new theme.
How do you recruit new Cub Scouts this spring? Start by taking a step back and pulling out your membership plan and goals. The ones your unit developed at the beginning of the year.
