Alex Tyms, Scout Executive (CEO) of the Council, spoke to us the BSA’s many activities. This Council covers 16 counties, 7,000 youth, and 3,000 adult volunteers. It was founded in 1912, the first Council in Wisconsin. They’re known for their popular popcorn fundraiser, but they also serve to raise 100,000 pounds of food annually for local food pantries. They feature many special events throughout the year. They journey to Ed Bryant Scout Reservation, located on Castle Rock Lake in Juneau County for the traditional BSA outdoor activities. They also feature more contemporary activities like sailing and jet skis. Camp attendance is booming. The BSA is also committed to growing the Cub Scouts program and to integrating more young girls into scouting. | .jpg) Alex Tyms, Scout Executive (CEO) of theGlacier Edge Council |
