Adventure with a purpose
The fun is real. So is the growth.
Troop 1513 Scouts camp, hike, cook, cycle, serve their community, and learn by doing. Every adventure gives Scouts in the Clear Lake area a practical way to build skills, confidence, leadership, and friendships.
There is always something new to try
Activities change throughout the year, but each one gives Scouts another way to contribute, connect, and discover what they can do.
Camp and explore
Set up camp, navigate trails, spend time outside, and grow more capable with every trip.
Cook and create
Plan meals, work with a team, solve practical problems, and enjoy the result together.
Serve with purpose
Use growing skills to help neighbors and see how individual effort can strengthen a community.
Take on a challenge
From a first night outdoors to a whitewater adventure, progress starts with trying.
How growth happens
One experience builds on the next
- Try it.A Scout steps into something unfamiliar with support nearby.
- Practice it.Repetition turns uncertainty into useful skill and confidence.
- Share it.Scouts help teammates and discover that others can count on them.
- Lead it.With experience, Scouts plan, guide, and encourage someone newer.
Youth-led, adult-supported
Scouts get meaningful responsibility
Young people help shape plans, make decisions, and take care of one another. Trained adults provide safety, coaching, and perspective without taking every challenge away.
Confidence grows when someone trusts you with something that matters.
