Read MoreWelcome to the Illowa Council!
We are proud to serve more than 1,800 youth who participate in Scouting in Bureau, Henry, Knox, McDonough, Mercer, Rock Island, Stark, and Warren counties in Illinois and Cedar, Clinton, Jackson, Muscatine, and Scott counties in Iowa. These 13 counties make up the Illowa Council!
Scouting has been shaping the youth of America for more than 100 years. Scouting does AMAZING things for youth. Scouts try new things, serve others, boost self-confidence, make ethical choices, and explore the outdoors. Besides being super-fun, Scouts say it helps them be more honest, teaches them to better work with others, guides them into becoming better team players and leaders, and provides life-long skills. Prepared. For Life.

Congratulations to Saukenuk District – Illowa Council Commissioner Christian Leon on being recognized as a Hometown Hero by Modern Woodmen of America.
Christian was honored for his dedication to youth and the community through his volunteer leadership in Scouting America. Whether organizing the STEALTH event at Camp Loud Thunder, helping improve camp facilities, cooking at events, or finding new ways to support local Scouts, Christian is always willing to step up and help.
As part of the Hometown Hero recognition, Christian received $100 to donate to the charity or organization of his choice. We may have a suggestion for where that donation could go… maybe Scouts!
Thank you, Christian, for everything you do for the youth and families of the Saukenuk District.
