📅 Sunday, October 5, 2025
📍 Clearview Pavilion, Moon Park – Moon Township, PA
Join us for the third annual Scouting the Moon Trail Races, hosted by Scouts BSA Troop 198. Whether you're running the 5K through Moon Park or tackling the 10K through Montour Woods, your footsteps will help shape the future of Scouting.
🌟 More Than Just a Race
Scouting isn't just about campfires and knots — it’s a powerful program that prepares young people to become leaders with character, integrity, and a commitment to service.
Through the Scout Oath and Scout Law, Scouts learn:
- Leadership through action
- Responsibility and goal setting
- Community service and citizenship
- Resilience through outdoor adventure
- Lifelong values like trustworthiness, kindness, and reverence
These lessons build confident, ethical leaders ready to meet the challenges of tomorrow — and your participation helps make that possible.
