SCOUTREACH
ScoutREACH is Dan Beard Council, Boy Scouts of America’s traditional Scouting program delivered in a non-traditional way to youth from hard-to-serve communities in the Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area. ScoutREACH is our commitment to making sure that every child has an opportunity to be a Scout, regardless of their circumstances, neighborhood, or ethnic background. The organized program provides a safe environment for youth with positive adult role models who teach kids about healthy living, introduce future career opportunities, and reinforce character development.
ScoutREACH programs are are delivered through local school partnerships either virtually, in-person, or after-school by one of Dan Beard Council’s Program Managers. Each program is custom to the needs of the school or organization. Programs are based upon a school calendar and run September to June.
In addition, youth particiapting in Scoutreach also typically have the opportunity to attend special Scouting activities throughout the year including Spook-O-Ree, Skills Day, Scout Swim Day, Pinewood Derby Car race, and the Fishing Derby.
