318 hygiene kits.
More than 30 youth worked together to assemble hygiene kits during the Boise Hawks service project. Most of those youth were not Scouts.

Every supply item was donated.

That's a story worth sharing.
And we know there are thousands more throughout Idaho and Eastern Oregon.

A first campout.
An Eagle project.
A service project.
A mentor who made a difference.
A friendship that lasted.

We are building the Mountain West Council Story Collection Repository and we'd love to hear your story.

Behind every adventure...
every campfire...
every service project...
and every new Scout...

is a volunteer who chose to make a difference.

Thank you to the leaders who spent the weekend in BALOO, IOLS, Wilderness First Aid, and other training opportunities so they can continue providing safe, meaningful, and life-changing experiences for youth.

Volunteers help young people succeed.

Every bag of popcorn sold helps local Scouts experience camping, leadership development, community service, and outdoor adventures right here in Idaho.

Even better, popcorn sales help support local Scouting programs and help reduce the Council Program Fee for Scouting families.
