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 $ 1,040,000

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.

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.
