Central NC Council News

 

It is now 2017! Just like many of our volunteers, Central North Carolina Council has made a New Year's Resolution. Our goal is to have regular communications going out the first Monday of each month starting in February. Central NC Council seeks to provide the highest quality of service to all of the youth and volunteers in our community. Whether you are visting Camp John J. Barnhardt, Camp Cabarrus, or our Scout Shop in Albemarle, we are here to serve you. If you have any questions or need assistance please contact us at our Council Headquarters - 704-982-0141.

Patron Dinner

March 6th

Experiencing Dreams. Hands On.

Please join us for an evening of food and fellowship, benefiting the more than 6,500 youth served through Central North Carolina Council Scouting programs.  Thanks to your generosity, Scouting continues to thrive and fulfill its mission of instilling lifelong values in young people through a hands-on learning environment that prepares them for life.

Our council believes in captivating the imaginations of our youth to keep them excited about the possibilities for their future.  We let children discover for themselves their own talents and interests and how they can apply their skills to achieve positive outcomes.  Scouting instills the tools necessary for today’s young people to become tomorrow’s leaders.

We look forward to seeing you on March 6th!
