This event is an opportunity for Scouts to compete and test your skills in Marksmanship. This will be our Second Annual Marksmanship Madness event. Scouts will learn NRA’s rules for safe gun handling; range rules; and we be shooting Rifles, Shotgun and Archery. At the end of the event Scores will be tallied and winners will be awarded. We are hoping to have another successful event.

Cub Scout will learn basics of BB, Archery and Sling Shot.

In 1911, Baden-Powell took the first steps in training Scouting’s adult leaders by organizing a series of lectures for Scouters. He made great strides in the years that followed, culminating in 1919 with the establishment of Wood Badge training.
