After School Scouting
Crossroads of America Council is committed to providing a safe, stimulating environment for families of central Indiana.
Using Scouting to develop well-rounded individuals
Crossroads of America Council’s After School Scouting Program is designed to meet the needs of all youth between the ages of 5 and 17. These programs place adult leaders as role models and provide skill development through a specialized curriculum. Weekly pack/troop meetings, regional events and camping opportunities are a few hallmarks of our programs.
We assist youth in our after-school programs with scholarships for registration, uniforms, handbooks, camp fees and equipment.
Our Vision
Increase youth participation while retaining more youth annually.
Increase youth advancing through the program.
Increase the number of hours of community service.
Increase youth outdoor experience.
