Pacifica District
Pacifica District serves the Southern California Communities of El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Gardena, Carson, Wilmington, Lomita, Harbor City, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates, and San Pedro.
Pacifica serves approximately 4,800 boys belonging in more than 200 Scout units enjoying camping, hiking, cycling, backpacking, rock climbing, skiing, snow boarding, horseback riding, and water sports of all kinds, including a Venture surfing program and Sea Scout ship. Scouts learn through fun, interactive activities that emphasize camaraderie, teamwork, and leadership skills. All levels of Scouting, beginning at the age of 6, are age based and grade related.
Volunteers from the District avidly supports and staff council events such as the University of Scouting, Cub Day Camp, Cub and Scout Residential Camp, National Youth Leader Training, and special projects such as the recent rebuilding of Forest Lawn Scout Reservation. Additionally, the district earnestly supports the Scouting for Food and BSA National Popcorn Sales program. We traditionally run 2 Camporees a year with an average attendance of about 250 boys each. Our District Training Committee offers a full spectrum of classes in 2006 training over 700 adult leaders and targets to exceed this number this year.
Our District strives to deliver a quality program for boys, with trained adult leadership, supported by an incredible professional staff.
