University of Scouting 2026

Saturday Nov. 7th

Get ready for a weekend the whole family can enjoy at University of Scouting! This isn’t just a training event—it's an
experience designed for everyone.

For Leaders & Parents: Gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence you need to make Scouting shine at your unit. Training
sessions cover everything from position specifics to program planning to hands-on leadership skills.

For Scouts BSA Youth: We’re offering 20+ merit badges, plus the opportunity to complete aquatic rank requirements.
Scouts can dive into new interests, knock out advancement, and take home real progress.

For Younger Kids: While mom and dad are learning, our Cub Fun Camp will keep K-5 Scouts busy with fun, adventure-filled
activities. Your Scouts will be having a blast while you’re sharpening your skills.

For Everyone: Expect a lively atmosphere with vendors — ranging from Scout-related organizations to community partners
— who bring resources, gear, and opportunities right to you.
