Happy Fourth of July, #ScoutingAmerica family!
 
This weekend, we celebrate the 250th signing of the Declaration of Independence. We honor the United States of America and the people who continue to strengthen it through service, leadership and compassion toward one another.
 
#Scouts across the nation are part of this story of service. From #CubScouts waving flags in hometown parades, to Venturers, Sea Scouts and Scouts BSA members investing in their communities, to #EagleScouts in the armed forces and beyond – Scouts thrive when they live lives of service.
 
As we celebrate our nation’s 250th birthday, we salute the youth – from kindergarten Cub Scouts to 20-year-old Venturers – who are putting in 250 hours of service to commemorate 250 years of the United States of America. We are so proud and honored to witness this milestone celebration – and we look forward to the next 250 years!
 
From Scouts in historical Boston, Massachusetts, to Scouts at U.S. military bases around the world, to Scouts living in the heartland of America – there is so much to celebrate. Happy Fourth of July!
 
P.S. – Show us how your unit is celebrating the Fourth of July, giving back or putting in 250 hours of service. The heart of Scouting America is its people – and we want to spotlight the youth and amazing volunteers making a difference.
