Scouts collected tens of thousands of pounds of food for families in need during our annual food drive.
Scouts in our National Honor Society (the Order of the Arrow) improved natural habitats, hiking trails and more in the great outdoors.
Scout units Donated thousands of hours to serve communities, honor Veterans and help those in need in our 19-county council.

The Future of Scouting
In this new era of Scouting, boys and girls continue to have epic adventures, families will connect while camping on our nationally-recognized properties, and our program will evolve to inspire unparalleled personal growth.
As always, youth who become Scouts in the Boy Scouts of America grow in confidence, character and capabilities that prepare them for career and life. They learn to persevere with a positive attitude and experience exponential personal growth.
They grow in GRIT and are ready to serve while making an impact in their communities that lasts generations.
There are a multitude of ways you can make an impact for generations.
Cascade Pacific Council’s goal is to create a safe, welcoming environment where every youth has an opportunity to belong and where they will have an unparalleled experience in the outdoors. Scouting provides skills that will last a life-time.
