Field of Glory 

Helping our neighbors: The Rotary Club of Azusa asked for help at their Field of Glory event. This annual event featured an inspirational display of hundreds of U.S. flags on the front lawn of Azusa Hall over the weekend of 9/11. This event celebrated veterans, military members, and first responders. Thank you for those that came out to help their neighbor.

Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills at Firestone,

This hands-on course provides adult leaders the practical outdoor skills they need to lead Scouts. Upon completion, leaders should feel comfortable teaching the basic skills required to obtain the First Class rank. Along with Scoutmaster Specific, this course is required of all direct contact leaders in order to be considered “trained.” (Scoutmaster Specific Training recommended prior to attendance at IOLS).

Do You Know a Worthy Scouting Alumnus?

The Greater Los Angeles Scouting Alumnus of the Year Committee is currently accepting applications for Council Alumnus of the Year! The Council Alumnus of the Year Award is different from other awards in Scouting as it does not simply recognize the individual for being a distinguished person or honor those giving time and energy to the BSA as a volunteer leader; Scouting already has awards that do that.

Completed applications are due by 11:59 PM on Tuesday, November 1, 2022. Please email the application and any supporting documents to Paul McNulty.

Your support enables Scouting LA to empower people to live confident, capable, complete, and compassionate lives through dynamic leadership opportunities and fun outdoor adventures. Together with your help, we will ensure that every Scout is prepared to face the challenges of our ever-changing world. Please consider making a tax-deductible gift today!

For all the info you’ll need about the adventure that awaits at our Council camps, look no further! From exploring the high sea on Catalina at Camp Cherry Valley to testing your skills as a ranger at Camp Big Horn, its nonstop action, adventuring, and learning!
