The Mid-America Council invites you to support Scouting through our Special Events!

Our events are designed to foster relationships, match your passion, and satisfy your philanthropic goals, all while creating fond memories and forging community! All proceeds from MAC events go directly to supporting Scouting throughout the Mid-America Council.

Participate as an attendee, committee member, volunteer, and/or contribute as a sponsor-level donor (tiers of brand name recognition benefits are offered). Please contact us at 326fundraising@scouting.org with any questions.
