Boy Scouts Of America

Outdoor programs - planned, organized outdoor activities at the den, pack, district, and council levels fulfill the promise made to our cub scouts. Young boys and girls have a great desire for outdoor fun, excitement, and adventure. These experiences encourage them to spend quality time with family and friends. Quality council camps and fun pack outdoor events directed by qualified, trained leaders provide an ideal setting for these activities. Scouting is designed to take place outdoors. It is in the outdoor setting that scouts share responsibilities and learn to live with one another. In the outdoors, the skills and activities practiced at troop meetings come alive with purpose. Being close to nature helps scouts gain an appreciation for the beauty of the world around us. The outdoors is the laboratory in which scouts learn ecology and practice conservation of nature's resources.outdoor/high adventure is the largest and fastest growing interest in the boy scouts of america, as youth grow they seek greater and greater challenges. The excitement of these physically and mentally challenging activities is both personally rewarding and aids in the character development of those participating. High adventure creates lifetime memories and experiences.conservation activities supplement the program of scout advancement, summer camp and outdoor activities and teach young people to better understand their interdependence with the environment.
