Scouting programs are ongoing throughout the year and give scouts an opportunity to complete nature-related badges, adventures or journeys. All or most requirements are met during these sessions. These programs can be attended by individual scouts or troops.
Pre-registration is required for all programs (including free programs). For safety during this time, please have your face covering and consider bringing hand sanitizer when you attend the program.
