BSA Adventure Base 100


Boy Scouts of America is celebrating its 100th birthday this year. As a part of that celebration, they are touring the country with their Adventure Base 100. My husband and two youngest children volunteered at this interactive display.
We took the Light Rail downtown to volunteer at this wonderful event that was set up at Taste of Colorado. My kids were so excited. We did get a few strange looks, but most people nodded in appreciation.


They had a ropes course set up as part of the display. My youngest son had so much fun that he went through it twice! There was so much to see and do including pressing a penny, watching a movie about the history of Boy Scouts and touring the mobile museum.
I handed out American flags to everyone as they left. Very patriotic. It also helped to direct people to our display as others inquired where to get their own flags. This was a really fun way to let others know about Boy Scouts and all we have to offer our young people. Did you know that girls can be a part of Boy Scouts starting at the age of 13? For more information, please visit the Boy Scout website to find a Troop or Pack near you.
