Scouting Resources on the Internet

• The Scouting Way -- This site, developed by Jeff Schwartz, is a great Scouting website.
• The MacScouter -- This site, developed by R.Gary Hendra (CM Pack 92 & CC Troop 92, Milpitas, California), is one of the most comprehensive scouting resources on the WWW. It contains valuable information and links to virtually every aspect of Cub Scouting. Don't miss the MacScouter Resource Directory at this site for a complete list of MacScouter resources. Leaders should check this out. Many thanks to Mr. Hendra!
• Boy Scout Troop 24 of Berkeley, CA -- This site looks simple on the cover but has tremendous depth of information. Although it is primarily a Boy Scout site, it also contains tons of information about Cub Scouting. Browse the Index Page to see the vast quantity of information and resources available at this site. Another excellent leader resource.
