Centennial Campaign Goal - $3 Million
Double the number of youth participating in Scouting in the next 5 years, through three key areas:
1. Grow & Support Scouting $ 2,500,000
2. Upgrade Scouting Facilities $ 40,000
3. Camp Decorah $ 460,000
Establishing endowed funds of $3,000,000 will ensure that $150,000 is available annually to help deliver on the campaign vision.
Please note: the Centennial Campaign goal is to raise funds to help the council Grow and Support Scouting now and for future generations. All contributions to this campaign will stay 100% local. It is not affiliated with any campaign which is related to the National BSA Chapter 11 settlement.
Here's the Centennial Campaign Progress toward the $3,000,000 Goal as of June 1, 2024

Co-Chair Message from Mark Binsfeld and Jansen Dahl:
Scouting creates leaders through hands-on learning, community involvement, and service to others. Our local board has a comprehensive plan to develop an even stronger Scouting program. To execute this plan, funding is a crucial piece. We hope you’ll consider giving financially to this Centennial Campaign. When you support Scouting, you are investing in the future of our local community.
Contributors to the Gateway Area Council Centennial Campaign will be recognized on a Donor Wall as part of the enhanced Scout Service Center.
