Full STEAM ahead!
We all know the future has a habit of showing up whether you're ready for it or not. Since we're Scouts, and since our motto is, literally, be prepared, we think its pretty important to do all we can to be ready for it.
​
That's why we include challenging and educational hands-on activities focusing on science, technology, engineering, arts, and math into our meetings and campouts whenever we can.
​
Oh, and they are amazingly fun as well. So, there's that!
​
Check out some examples of our STEAM areas below. If you like what you see, contact our Scoutmaster to see about visiting us to see how easily we have fun and develop important skills all at the same time.
