From our youngest Lions to our experienced Venturers and Explorers, the Katahdin Area Council offers programs that help youth learn, grow, and lead through hands-on experiences. Each program is designed to meet young people where they are—encouraging character development, outdoor adventure, friendship, and leadership at every age.
Families, volunteers, and youth all play a role in bringing Scouting to life. Whether you’re looking to get your child involved, explore high-adventure opportunities, discover real-world career experiences, or give back as an adult volunteer, there’s a place for you in Scouting.
Explore the programs below to find the path that fits your family, your interests, and your next adventure.
Scouting opens the door to adventure, skills, and leadership. Each program gives youth the chance to grow with confidence, make lasting friendships, and explore new experiences.
Scouting programs are based primarily on age or grade level. If you’re unsure where to begin, start with your child’s current grade and explore the program designed just for them. Each program builds skills, confidence, and leadership in age-appropriate ways.
Whether it’s a week at Camp Roosevelt exploring the Maine wilderness or joining one of our hands-on Scouting programs, there’s a summer full of fun, learning, and adventure waiting for every Scout.
