Get Involved!
Invite your friends and family to come to the event – It is open to everyone. Details coming soon for tickets.
Units are asked to put on their thinking cap to create an interactive activity that will be fun for the whole family to be done live at Scout-O-Rama! Each unit that signs up will be given a 10 x 10 space (bigger available by request) to host their fun activities.
Scouts are invited to dream big in what they create, but if you are looking for inspiration here are some great ideas: Metalworking, monkey bridge, slime creation, obstacle course, giant jenga, crafts, live angry birds, gold panning, etc.
Businesses and community organizations are invited to participate with sponsorship, entertainment, prize donation, or a booth. Contact Dianne Betz for more information: Dianne.Betz@scouting.org or call 408-638-8313.

Units are asked to put on their thinking cap to adapt their traditional booth or create something new that will be fun and engaging for a family at home.
The goal of these activities is to be fun, easy, and get everyone up and doing something instead of staying at home in front of the computer. Please bring your creativity!
