Scout Home base is open for everyone who is interested in participating in Scouting. Learn about the basics of the two programs we are currently supporting through the Scout Home Base programs
Cub Scouts
Cub Scouting is a fun adventure for families with children in kindergarten through 5th grade. In Scouting, boys and girls start with their best right now selves and grow into their very best future selves. It’s fun, hands-on learning and achievement that puts kids in the middle of the action and prepares them for today – and for life.

Scouts BSA is the traditional Scouting experience for youth in the fifth grade through high school. Service, community engagement and leadership development become increasingly important parts of the program as youth lead their own activities and work their way toward earning Scouting’s highest rank, Eagle Scout.
Advancement and Awards
There are more than 150 awards you can earn as a member of Scouts BSA. Whether it’s a rank advancement, merit badge or one of the many other individual awards, there’s plenty for you to set your sights on. Learn about the awards and ranks
Merit Badges
You can learn about sports, crafts, science, trades, business, and future careers as you earn merit badges. There are more than 135 merit badges, and any Scout may earn any of these at any time. There are a few required to earn Eagle Scout, but Scouts can work with a qualified Merit Badge Counselor to complete ones they are interested in.
