Description

The Classic is a major fundraising event to support the families involved in Scouting in our area. Your participation affects over 2,500 youth and 1,500 adult leaders annually.

Since its inception, this event has raised over $1,000,000 to support Scouting’s values-based leadership development programs and provided scholarships for youth to attend camp. It is exciting to see that America is returning to the values that Scouting never left. Thank you for your past support and we hope you’ll join us for this very special event.
