Welcome Scouts and Scout Leaders!

In 1998, the Boy Scouts of America and the National Park Service entered into an agreement to conduct volunteer service projects on national park lands throughout the United States. Since that time, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, young men and women in the Venturing program, as well as their leaders have completed nearly 96,105.00 hours of service in America's parks.

To find out which national parks have volunteer opportunities available in your area, click on the state or U.S. Territory below, then have your Scoutmaster contact the VIP Coordinator of that site.
