Catholic Boy Scout Programs in Utah

Catholic churches and Catholic organizations (such as the Knights of Columbus)   sponsor Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops and Venturing Crews in the Great Salt Lake Council.  Within the Boy Scouts of America, many units are of a predominant faith and encourage their members to participate more fully in the life, work, and mission of that faith.  This page provides information on Catholic Scouting in the Diocese of Salt Lake City (the three BSA councils that encompass the entire state of Utah).  It includes helpful resources, community contacts, unit locations, and religious emblems information.
