Reconnect with Your Scouting Friends and Family at the 1st BSA Alumni Reunion in Artesia

Date: August 3, 2024

Time: 5 PM - 7 PM

Location: American Legion Post 41, Artesia, NM

Do you remember the thrill of earning your first merit badge? The camaraderie around the campfire? The life lessons learned on weekend outings and summer camps? For many of us, these experiences were profoundly shaped by our Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, and fellow Scouts. Now, you have the opportunity to relive those memories and reconnect with the people who made them so special.

On August 3, 2024, join us at the BSA Alumni Reunion at the American Legion Post 41. This event is not just a walk down memory lane—it's a chance to rekindle old friendships, share stories, and celebrate the values that continue to guide us today.

Who Was Your Favorite Scoutmaster?

Think back to your days in the Scouts. Who was the Cub or Scoutmaster who inspired you the most? Maybe it was the one who taught you how to tie your first knot or the one who helped you overcome your fear of heights on a rock climbing expedition. That same Scoutmaster, who played such a pivotal role in your development, is still part of our community. Imagine the joy of catching up with them, sharing how their guidance influenced your life, and hearing their stories from over the years.

Reconnect with the Most Influential Scout You Remember

Scouting is about building lifelong skills and friendships. Who was the Scout who always led the pack with a positive attitude, the one who was always there to lend a helping hand? This reunion is the perfect occasion to reconnect with those individuals who left a lasting impact on your Scouting experience. Whether it was a fellow Scout who became a lifelong friend or someone whose leadership inspired you, this is your chance to see them again.
