If you are too young to be a Boy Scout then there is a form of scouting called Cub Scouting which is geared for younger boys. If you are too old for Boy Scouts there is yet another form of Scouting called Venturing made for both guys and girls that are ages 14-21. If you are intrested in either of these programs then you can email us and we will send you information on either the Venture crews or Cub Scout dens in your area.
