EVENTS

Welcome 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.

So many scouting ambassadors in our community!

Were you at the scout night hockey game last night?

A big shoutout to Steamboat Willie from the Wheelers, Rascal from the Bandits, and Radar from the Storm. These three are always showing up to events, bringing energy, laughter, and plenty of smiles to our Scouts.

Whether it’s welcoming new youth, posing for photos, or just adding that extra spark of fun, they help make Scouting events memorable and inviting for everyone. Their enthusiasm helps create the kind of positive environment that keeps our program growing and thriving.

Thank you for all you do to support Scouting and inspire the next generation! 👏⚜️
