Welcome to the Southern Crescent District Website!

The Southern Crescent District is in the Atlanta Area Council, serving Scouts, Leaders and Parents in Clayton County and South Fulton County. See the BeAScout website for location and contact information for Cub Scout Packs (Kindergarten through 5th Grade are Cub Scouts), Scouts BSA Troops (end of 5th Grade to age 18), and Venturing Crews. 

For an overview of Scouting, see this "We Are Scouts" video or this Pack 1030 animoto; or this "What Scouting Does Right" video; or this one about Cub Scout Camping and Outdoor Activities!  Or this one from a Michigan Troop (the activities depicted have been done by local Troops too!), or these.  Deciding between Sports and Scouts (you can do both):  see this clip.  Like us on our Facebook Page!

Help for Den Leaders -- "Assembled" Den Meeting Plans

Posted on Dec 10 2024 - 5:15pm

Do you like the new and simpler requirements for each Cub Scout Adventure?

  • Where you don't have to pick and choose which requirements to do?
  • Cool!  Simple.  Easy. 

But what about the new National Resources for each Cub Scout Adventure?  Are they Simple and Easy?

  • You must pick and choose which which activities to do!
  • You have to go somewhere else to find out how to do a Den Meeting!
  • You have to assemble the activities you pick into the other parts of a Den Meeting!
  • Is that Simple??  Is that Easy??  No.  We can do better.

To help den leaders, we've assembled 126 Cub Scout Adventures into a Den Meeting Plan format with added videos and tips to make leading Cub Scouts easier.  Really.  Click here for more, or keep reading below.

Service Ideas: Service Projects and Simple Ways to Help

Posted on Dec 2 2024 - 1:16pm

A Scout is Helpful. The fuller explanation of this point of the Scout Law is: "Volunteer to help others without expecting a reward".  To help Packs, Dens, Troops, Crews, Scouts and their families, we can share ideas about ways to help.  Our service project page is a compendium of ideas about what Scouts can do, from large "service projects" that can be organized by Scouts and/or Units, to existing service opportunities that you can join in, as well as small ways that a Scout can help others (for younger Scouts, with help from the family).  More here.
