Scouting can be a way to help Catholic youth honor their duty to God and to their country.  Scouting builds character and teaches devotion to God in an environment that provides wholesome fun under the guidance of strong adult role models. 

The Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting manages the process for scouts in the diocese to receive religious awards. This includes: providing training for the awards counselors, reviewing the scouts’ work, and sponsoring a day of reflection.
