SCOUTING programs for both boys and girls are sponsored by Duluth First United Methodist Church. Boys and girls each receive excellent guidance from adults who have been trained to help each child develop good scouting values.
CUB SCOUTS is a group of both male and female children, ages Kindergarten through 5th grade. Children are taught about family values, building self-esteem, duty to God, citizenship to their community and country, as well as learning how to help others by community service projects. We explore the outdoors through camping, hiking, and learning about nature. We meet on Monday nights from 7 to 8 p.m. during the school year.
Being a Cub Scout is a confidence-building positive experience. If interested, please contact Tracy Brookshire at 770-757-9648 or by e-mail at bb1288@aol.com.
Girls ages 5 to 17 have GIRL SCOUTING opportunities at Duluth First United Methodist Church. We have Daisies, Brownies, Junior Girl Scouts and Girls Scouts. All of the scouting programs for girls emphasize developing self potential, relating to others, developing values and contributing to society.
SCOUTS BSA - For the first time in its 100+ year history, the iconic program of the Boy Scouts of America will be open to young women. Scouts BSA is a year-round program for boys and girls in 5th grade through high school that provides fun, adventure, learning, challenge, and responsibility to help them become the best version of themselves. In Scouts BSA, young men and women go places, test themselves, and have one-of-a-kind adventures that can’t be found anywhere else. Scouting builds character and instills values for a lifetime. We will be starting a new Scouts BSA program aimed at young women in the Duluth area at Duluth First United Methodist Church. If interested or have any questions please contact James Dykes through email at jamesd02@msn.com.
BOY SCOUTING is a year-round value-based program centered on family, duty to God, and service to others. It teaches youths (ages 7 to 18) self-confidence, citizenship and a Christian way of living both in the outdoors and at home!
