Gifts for Scouts and Scouters

Gifts are a good way to show your appreciation to the Scouter who are helping so much with your Scouting program. They are also a way to recognize Scouts for achievements during their Scouting adventures.

Some favorite ideas are shown below. I also have a section on books for Scouts and Scouters which might be helpful. And Scouting Coffee Cups and Mugs are always welcome gifts.

Your purchase of items through this website helps pay the bills to keep this site running. Thank you!
