Join the Race to Scouting!

On April 19, 2008 from 11:00 to 5:00pm at the Reliant Arena the Boy Scouts of America- Sam Houston Area Council will sponsor the 71st annual Scout Fair. The event will feature ~700 interactive Scouting exhibits capitalizing on the “Race to Scouting” theme. We are disappointed to hear that the Grand Prix of Houston has been cancelled but the Scout Fair will not be impacted.  Houston’s Scout Fair is the largest in the country and will draw over 40,000 Scouts, parents, and visitors to see Scouting’s outdoor classroom in action.

Exhibits will include demonstrations on aviation, cooking, rock climbing, pioneering, first aid, woodworking, sailing, Indian Lore, games, and many other Scouting activities. Visitors are invited to observe and participate. Scouts are currently selling family value packs for $10.00 each, and are encouraging families to spend the afternoon enjoying the Scout Fair. Value packs are available from any Scout and include up to $250 in values.
