Scouting

Many United Methodist churches sponsor scouting groups such as Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Camp Fire USA , and 4-H [Discipline ¶ 256. 4.]. A church may choose to have a scouting coordinator to help relate the scouting opportunities to the congregation. Scout Sunday is observed on the second Sunday in February.
