Scouts also visit a museum or build a catapult, pitching machine, or marble run.

The Soccer program feature helps Scouts learn how to enjoy the world's most popular sport. While doing this, they learn about fitness, teamwork, and fun.
Powdered Sports Drink Recipe
Sports drinks like Gatorade or Power Aid are designed to replenish the water and salt your body loses when you are active or exercising. You can mix up your own powdered mix to accomplish this for a fraction of the cost of purchasing these drinks by the bottle.
