Join us on Thursday May 28 at 6:00pm for a flexible, drop-in style Zoom session designed to support new and smaller units. Think of it like a professor’s office hours—come with questions, ideas, or just to listen in.
What to expect:
• Experienced volunteers available to answer questions
• Help with calendar planning and logistics
• Demonstrations of online tools and resources
• Open discussion tailored to your needs
This is a casual, supportive space with no formal agenda, just real-time help and collaboration. If no one joins within the first 10 minutes, the session will close early.

The Liberty in Action: 250th Anniversary Challenge is a special program from Scouting America celebrating the values, service, and civic spirit that define our nation and our Scouts.
Scouts and their families in all programs can earn the patch by participating in activities that highlight patriotism, community service, responsible citizenship, and an understanding of the principles that shape our democracy. You may have even completed some of the requirements at our Del-Mar-Va Council Jamboree last month!

Wilderness First Aid is the assessment of and treatment given to an ill or injured person in a remote environment where definitive care of a physician and/or rapid transport is not readily available. When calling 911 is not an immediate option, or when help is hours or even days away, the task of treating the ill or injured can challenge your "standard" first aid skills.

We are hosting a Wilderness First Aid training course on Saturday June 6 at Akridge Scout Reservation. Registration closes on May 22, so don't delay! For more details and to register for any training course, visit https://www.delmarvacouncil.org/training/
