Help Shape the Next Great Scout Adventure

Every unforgettable Scouting experience starts with dedicated volunteers.

Circle Ten Council is looking for passionate individuals to serve on our Camping Program Committees, helping strengthen and expand the outdoor programs that inspire thousands of Scouts each year.

Whether you have expertise, a hobby, or simply a passion for the outdoors, your ideas can help create even better experiences in areas such as:

ATV
Horses & Equestrian Programs
Climbing & Rappelling
Cycling
And other outdoor program areas

Committee members help evaluate current programs, share new ideas, develop future opportunities, and ensure our activities continue to deliver safe, exciting, and memorable adventures for every Scout.

If you'd like to make a lasting impact on the Scouting experience, we'd love to hear from you.

Please express your interest by emailing Bobby Higginbotham and let him know which program area(s) you have experience or passion you'd like to share.

We're always looking for passionate volunteers. If there's not an opening in your area of interest today, we'll keep your information on file for future opportunities.

Christmas in July: 10,000 for the Troops

It's never too early to spread a little holiday cheer!

We're excited to announce Scouting America's participation in the 10,000 for the Troops service project again this year, bringing a touch of home to military service members during the holiday season. Rather than waiting until November, we're encouraging Scouts, families, and volunteers to start creating holiday cards this summer.

Cub Scouts: This is a great opportunity to work toward the Summertime Fun Adventure while giving back to those who serve our country.

Scouts of All Ages: Whether you're in Scouts BSA, Venturing, Sea Scouts, or Exploring, your cards can make a meaningful impact on someone serving far from home.

Adults Too: Parents, leaders, alumni, and supporters are invited to join in. This is a service project the entire Scouting family can participate in together.

Use this as an opportunity for your den, patrol, crew, ship, unit, or family to gather over the summer and create heartfelt holiday messages. Every card helps remind our troops that they are remembered, appreciated, and supported by their communities back home.

Completed cards can now be turned in at either Circle Ten Council office (you don't have to wait until November).

Together, let's help deliver thousands of smiles and make this a holiday season to remember for those who serve.
