Welcome to Cohasset Scouts BSA

Cohasset Scouts BSA provides a range of fun and challenging activities, from camping and hiking, to climbing and high-ropes courses, to canoeing, skiing and white water rafting. Weekly meetings allow time to plan trips, learn skills and spend time with friends. Scouting provides many opportunities to participate in service projects that benefit the community.

Leadership

Cohasset Scouts BSA is a scout-lead unit. The scouts elect their leaders, who set the agenda for the Troop’s activities and meetings. This provides leadership opportunities and training which are unmatched by other youth activities. Scouts are guided and supervised by a group of trained adult volunteers dedicated to providing the broad BSA program of activities, training and learning opportunities to all of our scouts.

Community

Cohasset Scouts BSA scouts are leaders within scouting and in the community. The Troops are well represented in student government, varsity sports, music, arts and community groups. Scouting provides an opportunity to excel both within the program and develop leadership skills to excel in other activities.

Achievement

Within scouting, Cohasset Scouts BSA has a high rate of scouts who commit to the program and attain Eagle Scout rank, not because it is easy (it isn’t), but because the scouts have established a culture of working together to achieve that high distinction.

Scouting is Fun!

While leadership and community service are cornerstones of scouting, activities are are an integral part of the scouting experience. Cohasset scouting includes a wide array of outdoor activities.

Hiking

Cohasset scouts have climbed Mt. Monadnock, Mt. Greylock, and the Blue Hills. The troops also organize shorter day hikes in and around the South Shore.

Camping

Camping is a staple of the scouting experience. While many activities involve camping, Cohasset troops make a point to camp regularly at Wheelwright Park and the Harbor Islands... which is one of the more popular camp trips of the year.

Climbing

Scouts have tackled indoor climbing at Challenge Rocks, done outdoor climbing at New England Base Camp and have even tried their hand at ice climbing.

Water Sports

Canoeing, Kayaking and white-water rafting are always popular events.
