Scouting America
We are thrilled each year to share the camp with the US Scouts. Typically the Scouting America Scout and Venturing youth are in the US 6th Infantry Regiment. As well, U.S. Scouts can participate in the combined Canadian and U.S. Artillery Regiment.
The Cub Scouts are part of the Junior Brigade, called the Canadian Fencible Infantry and West Point Academy.
The US 6th is one of four Infantry Regiments that participate in the Scout Brigade of Fort George.
The other three Regiments are the 8th (Kings) Regiment, The Royal Newfoundland Regiment and the 49th Regiment of Foot, all of which are Canadian Scouts.
The 6th Regiment of the United States Infantry is, of course, comprised of U.S. Scouts. Each year the U.S. Scouts are invited to participate in this truly remarkable Scouts Canada Scout Program.
This Website is dedicated to helping U.S. Scouts and their leaders get involved.
For a more complete description of the scout program that members of the 6th Regiment will participate please look at the Scout Program information.
The Scout Brigade of Fort George was featured in the August 2014 Issue of Scout Life Magazine.
