What is a Scout Show?

A "Scout Show" is an event organized by a local Scouting America Council or District where Cub Scout Packs, Scouts BSA Troops, and Venture Crews come together to demonstrate Scouting skills, sometimes also called Scout Expos or Scout-O-Rama. 

Purpose:

Scout Shows are designed to:

  • Showcase Scouting skills and activities to the public, promoting the benefits of Scouting.
  • Provide Cub Scouts with a broader view of Scouting beyond their Den and Pack.
  • Offering a unique display of Scouting traditions, games, outdoor programs, and community vendors.
  • Units that participate will receive an additional 5% commission for their popcorn sales this year! 

Activities

Activity selection for units will be confirmed in order of units registration. These events typically feature:

  • Live demonstrations and exhibits conducted by Scouts of all ages.
  • Special events from other community organizations and businesses.
  • Council-wide events like Pinewood Derby.
  • Here is a helpful resource for activities your unit could sign up for, although it is not limited to this list of options. 

General agenda for the day

  • 7:00 AM - Start setting up booths.
