We offer Scouting activities in Sammamish for boys and girls age 10+.

Our Mission

Scouts BSA prepares our young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.

I heard of Boy Scouts of America, but what is Scouts BSA? Scouts BSA is the traditional Scouting experience where boys and girls can have adventure in the great outdoors. Scouts BSA develops a love of service by volunteering in Sammamish, boosting leadership skills through fun and exciting challenges, and creates lifetime memories. Boy Scouts of America opened up the program to both boys and girls and renamed the program Scouts BSA.

Scout Law

A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Scout Oath

“On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.”

Who can Join?

No prior experience in with scouting is required. Scouts BSA is open to all boys and girls age 10+. We have scouts from Sammamish, Issaquah, Redmond and Bellevue. Our Scouts are from a variety of local schools in Lake Washington School District and also Issaquah School District.
