Welcome! 
St. Joseph's Chartered Scouting Organizations
The Boy and Girl Scouting Programs at St. Joseph's Catholic Church offer a tremendous opportunity for fun, friendship and development, to both the youth and parent participants. The St. Joseph's Community is very proud of our youths and we recognize that their education and nurturing are important for each of them now, plus to us all as they prepare to become the leaders of the future. These programs offer the families of our Faith Community plus the families of the Greater Mandarin-Area Community a chance to participate in worldwide organizations and watch our future leaders as they grow.
The Cub Scouts offer programs for boys from First Grade through Fifth Grade, and the Boy Scouts continue with programs up to age 18.
The Girl Scouts offer programs for girls from Kindergarten up to age 18.
