Support the Future of Hancock County Youth at the Good Scout Award Dinner:
Scouting America has been making a positive difference in the lives of young people for more than a century, and that tradition continues today throughout Hancock County and South Mississippi. Every week, thousands of Scouts raise their hand and make a promise to live by the values of character, citizenship, leadership, and service. This year's awardee will be Mr. David Mayley.
Through camping, community service, leadership opportunities, and outdoor adventures, Scouts develop confidence, self-reliance, and a strong sense of responsibility. These experiences help prepare young people to make good decisions, overcome challenges, and become productive members of our communities.
To support these life-changing programs, a special Good Scout Dinner will be held in Hancock County on Thursday, July 16, 2026. Guests will arrive at 6:00 p.m., with the program beginning at 6:30 p.m. Community leaders, businesses, and supporters are invited to attend and learn how Scouting America continues to impact local youth and families.
If you would like to attend this Scouting fundraising event, you may RSVP by scanning the QR code no later than July 11 or by contacting Diamondhead Cubmaster Michael Burke at 405-630-8328 (call or text).
If you are unable to attend, please consider making a gift or pledge to support Scouting in Hancock County. Your generosity helps ensure that local youth continue to benefit from the leadership development, outdoor experiences, and values-based programs that Scouting America provides.
Together, we can continue building the next generation of leaders, citizens, and community servants.
