SCOUTREACH
ScoutREACH is Dan Beard Council’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 delivered either during the school day or as an after-school program by one of Dan Beard Council’s Program Managers. More than 5,300 youth participate in our program each year across 79 inner-city schools. Each program is custom to the needs of the school or organization. Programs are based upon a school calendar and run September to June, with an opportunity to connect in July for Challenge Camp.
ScoutREACH is fully supported by the Dan Beard Council, meaning that there is no cost to participating youths and their families.
The annual PLN Dodgeball Championship is an important fundraising event for the Dan Beard Council, Boy Scouts of America. What is more important is the health and safety of our donors and volunteers.
Because of that, we are cancelling the 2020 PLN Dodgeball Championship which annually raises money for Challenge Camp. In its place, we are hosting an Online Giving Campaign that will support all of our ScoutREACH programs including Challenge Camp.
Your gift is an important part of helping youth from hard-to-serve communities experience Scouting. With your contribution and support, the Dan Beard Council can continue delivering quality and impactful ScoutREACH programs throughout our community.
