Happy Birthday, BSA

It's time to celebrate with a big birthday bash; the Boy Scouts of America is 100 years old this year. Learn the history of how Scouting came to the United States. Find out about those who have given us this great Scouting legacy, such as Daniel Carter Beard, James E. West, Ernest Thompson Seton, Waite Phllips, and W.D. Boyce. We're planning a party for our annual blue and gold banquet.

Take Flight

Air has the power to push and pull objects so that they can fly. Learn all about air and why it is needed to fly. Learn about gravity. Make your own flying machines and learn about the Wright brothers. Figure out which types of paper airplanes fly farther, higher, faster, and longer, and why.

Spring Into Action

Spring into action with outdoor activities such as hikes, sports and games; cleaning up litter along ponds, parks or roadsides; or planting trees for improved habitat. Make plaster casts of the animal tracks you find on your hike. Visit and talk with someone who works with wildlife conservation and visit a fish hatchery, zoo, animal shelter, or wildlife sanctuary. Build birdhouses, birdbaths, feeding stations, or boxes for nesting materials.
