Read MoreWelcome to the Illowa Council!
We are proud to serve more than 2,600 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.

Top of the mornin' to you! 🍀 A wee bit of Irish generosity! 🍀
This St. Patrick’s Day, we’re feeling extra lucky! A big THANK YOU to Flaherty’s Irish Candy #flahertysirishcandy for donating a sweet item to the silent auction at Scouting America Illowa Council’s Community Impact Gala.
Their generosity helps support local youth and the life-changing adventures Scouting provides. We’re so grateful for community partners like them!

These are going to be HOT items at summer camp this year! Want to guarantee yours? Make sure your unit has placed their pre-orders for t-shirts and hoodies through their Scouts BSA Summer Camp registration in Tentaroo by May 3, 2026, at midnight. HOODIES are ONLY available through pre-orders.
Another note: Scouts wanting to take advantage of the Early Bird pricing need to be paid in full by March 16, 2026, at midnight. Plan accordingly!
