LA County Parks and LA Scouting Partnership

We are excited that this past weekend we celebrated our partnership with LA County Parks to bring Scouting to East and South LA County. This is a monumental partnership that brings the great outdoors closer to home. Check out the photo album to see the event. 

There is still time to register your Cub Scout!

Wolves, Bears, and Webelos can experience the thrill of Archery at Cabrillo Beach Youth Center in San Pedro on Saturday, June 18th. A parent or guardian must accompany the Scout. The cost is $10 per Scout. Sessions are divided by age and reservations are required.

The purpose of this training is to acquaint adult Scouters with an understanding of and an appreciation of the unquietness and special qualities of the desert environment and to emphasize those backpacking skills that are essential to having a safe and enjoyable experience in the desert.  Date and Time: September 17, 2022, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Location: Cushman-Watt Scout Service Center

Children under age 18 years are invited to receive a nutritious lunch and snack that includes vegetables, fruits, seeds and dairy products such as milk, string cheese and yogurt.
