We’re asking you to help build the heroes of tomorrow by investing in the Scouts of today with a Giving Tuesday donation. Your Giving Tuesday donation will support all that Scouting offers, from the challenges of knot-tying to the life-changing experiences of a Jamboree. But that’s not all.

Your gift also helps:

  • Parents who want to give their kids a strong moral compass.
  • Employers near you who are looking for hardworking young people who aren’t intimidated by challenges.
  • Our community that depends on responsible citizens and leaders of integrity. Your Giving Tuesday gift will keep Susquehanna Council strong and help it grow to serve even more families. Please make your gift before midnight on Giving Tuesday in order to equip our young people in the development of critical life skills and set them on a path to becoming the next generation of heroes.

Please visit our new Scouting Safely pages

Few youth organizations encompass the breadth, volume, and diversity of physical activity common to Scouting, and none enjoy a better safety record. Check out the links below for more information about the programs and policies that BSA and the Susquehanna Council have implemented to keep our youth and adult volunteer leadership safe and join us in our commitment to safety in scouting.

Adventure Awaits

The Susquehanna Council, Boy Scouts of America, serves more than 2,100 youth through the leadership of 1,000 adult volunteers. Scouting provides programs to youth in five counties in Central Pennsylvania – Clinton, Lycoming, Northumberland, Snyder, and Union. The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.

The Susquehanna Council is home to beautiful Camp Karoondinha along Penns Creek in western Union County. Each summer we provide exceptional programming to Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, and Venturers. We are building character in the youth of our communities, one child at a time!  Click below to secure your spot at Camp K for this summer!

Now is the perfect time to join a Cub Pack (all youth grades K-5) or Scouts BSA Troop (all youth ages 11-17). There is no obligation for attending a few meetings just to see what it’s all about!
 

Thank you to the NRA Foundation for selecting the Susquehanna Council and Camp Karoondinha this year for the Grant. We received .22 ammunition, shotgun ammunition, and arrows to help us overhaul our program moving forward. From all of us at the Susquehanna Council, Thank you!
