After a tough couple of years, it’s time to get back to what we all love to do – Scouting with lots of friends! This will be a fun and memorable weekend for all Scouts and a time to catch up with old friends.
Join us in Goochland May 20th through the 22nd for the Back-At-Camp Council Camporee!
Scout Sunday is fast-approaching, and we want to know how your unit celebrates this special day! Do you attend service in uniform, perform a service project, present religious awards and emblems? Maybe it's a little bit of each. We'd love to hear about your Scout Sunday traditions! Email us at rebekah.nyalko@scouting.org. You can pre-order patches right now through the Scout Shop.
The National Museum of the Marine Corps is a great place to bring your Scouts for a hands-on, inspiring tour of American history, leadership, science, or art through the lens of the United States Marine Corps! For more information on how to schedule a free program for your Scouts, please contact Laura Hockensmith, Chief of Education, at laura.hockensmith@usmcu.edu. They look forward to seeing you!
