February is Scouting in America Month!

February, 2019 will commemorate Scouting in America and will have achieved the blessings of 109 years of Scouting for young people and their family. The Scouting program has always included faith and duty to God as basic tenets and these are recited in The Scout oath: “I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country” and in The Scout Law: “a Scout is Reverent”. It is with these tenets that Saint William charters one of the largest Troops in Capital Area Council, Troop 345 Round Rock. With over 100 Boy Scouts and adult leaders, 60 Cub Scouts and 23 leaders, together they are an active group in our community.

Similarly, American Heritage Girls (AHG) was founded by a group of parents wanting a faith-based, scout-type character development program for their daughters in 1995. After years of formation, the AHG Program is dedicated to building women of integrity through duty to God, family, community and country. AHG girls across the world participate in badge programs, service projects, leadership development, and outdoor experiences, all with an emphasis on Christian values and family involvement.
