About the provider

For more than 100 years, Piedmont Council has prepared Piedmont youth for life. Its mission states that it provides youth in the community with opportunities to learn and develop character, leadership, citizenship, and fitness through age-appropriate adventures. The page also says Scouts give back through Scouting for Food, Piedmont Community Service Crew projects, scout-led Eagle projects, and more.

Anyone, including those who attend school outside Piedmont, is welcome to join. Separate dens allow girls and boys to learn and grow at the pace unique to their development. Cub Scout dens are grade specific and led by trained adults. The council serves boys and girls aged 5-18.

What families say

“Scouts has provided our boys with opportunities to participate in challenging outdoor adventures and team building situations, practice leadership skills and build friendships while working their way through a variety of engaging achievements. These experiences, and the knowledge acquired along the way, will no doubt have a life-long impact on their development into well-rounded young men.” — Nancy and Wes Steiml
