Wente Scout Reservation

Scoutcraft

The skills learned in Scoutcraft have been called the heart and soul of Scouting by many sage Scouters. Wente’s Scoutcraft Area keeps this tradition alive. In addition to merit badges, there are other opportunities to sharpen your Scoutcraft skills.

Totin’ Chip, Firem’n Chit, and the Paul Bunyan Woodsman Award offer Scouts the chance to learn safety with woods tools, fire, and the chance to help others learn these important skills as well.
