Our Vision

Our vision is to create a thriving network of Scouts and community partners across the North Shore District of the Capitol Area Council of Scouting America, fostering a spirit of service, civic engagement, and mutual support. The North Shore District encompasses Leander and Lago Vista ISDs, which include the communities of Leander, Lago Vista, Cedar Park, and parts of Round Rock, Georgetown, Jonestown, and north Austin (Steiner Ranch).

Our Mission

To align with Scouting’s core values of community service and civic duty by providing dedicated Scout volunteers at various local events. This program not only supports our community but also enriches the scouting experience. The Community Ties project aims to strengthen the North Shore District’s engagement with the broader community by fostering relationships between scouts, scouters, and the residents of the communities we serve. These connections are essential for promoting civic engagement, community service, and the core values of Scouting.

FOR UNIT LEADERS: Plan ahead & Get Involved

Fellow Scout Leaders — we’ve got your next step in making a difference in our community! The North Shore District has launched a brand-new sign-up form to make it easier than ever for units to get involved in upcoming recruitment, service, and community–building events throughout the year. The interest form outlining 2025–2026 volunteer opportunities and community events is NOW LIVE. This form will include tentative dates and allow units to indicate which events they are interested in, helping them incorporate these opportunities into their annual calendars. Based on the responses, we will work to secure the opportunities that units express interest in and coordinate with partners to ensure availability and alignment with unit and event schedules.
