Our Mission
The Boy Scouts, part of the Scouting movement, engage in a variety of activities focused on outdoor skills, personal development, community service, and teamwork. Here are some key aspects of what Boy Scouts typically do:
​
-
Outdoor Activities: Boy Scouts often participate in camping, hiking, and backpacking. They learn survival skills, navigation, first aid, and environmental stewardship.
-
Merit Badges: Scouts earn merit badges in various fields like science, crafts, sports, and business, which help them learn new skills and explore different interests.
-
Community Service: Community service is a significant part of Scouting. Scouts often engage in projects that benefit their communities, such as park cleanups, food drives, and assisting local organizations.
-
Leadership Development: The program emphasizes leadership and character development. Scouts take on various leadership roles within their troops and learn about responsibility, teamwork, and ethical decision-making.
-
Advancement System: Scouts progress through ranks by meeting specific requirements, culminating in the prestigious Eagle Scout rank, which requires a significant service project.
-
Jamborees and Events: Scouts participate in local, national, and sometimes international gatherings known as jamborees, where they meet other Scouts, engage in activities, and exchange experiences.
-
Scout Law and Oath: Scouts follow the Scout Oath and Law, principles that promote moral behavior, respect, and service to others.
​
Overall, Boy Scouts is about personal growth, learning new skills, making friends, serving the community, and having fun in outdoor adventures.
