This Sunday, March 6 - We are offering Den Chief training for youth looking for leadership opportunities. This is a terrific class and we encourage Scouts to sign up for this. Last chance! RSVP here.
Our website calendar has been updated! It is now Google based so you can save it to your own personal calendar, export, print easily in PDF format, view by week, month, and view details on each event.
PAST DUE: If you have not taken your California State Mandated Training yet online, please do that here. If you're reading this, you should take it. We have several people who have not taken it, and it is required by California State Law.
Next Sat 3/12 - We are hosting our second Derby Clinic! See videos here. We will have saws buzzing and families smiling. Did you miss out last month? Come back on March 12! RSVP and see you soon!
Registration for Spring Aquatics is OPEN for all ages! Sign up here for April 18-22 at our Long Beach Sea Base. Hands-on activities and fun with friends. See photos from last year here. Very popular camp!
Camp cards are ready for pickup, so let us know how many you'd like to pickup. Scouts earn cash and Amazon gift cards. We organize and manage this fundraiser locally to help support our council and your Scout's activities. See more info here.
Last summer we set out to upgrade our archery program with modern bows, arrows, targets, safety equipment, quivers, and more. We are about $700 short. Help us here! We would appreciate the help.
