About the Council

The purpose of the Chief Okemos Council, Boy Scouts of America, is to mobilize resources and organize efforts to extend Scouting Programs to any child who wants to join.

The Chief Okemos Council serves over 7,000 youth in Ingham, Eaton and Clinton counties, and the School District of Portland. In our tri-county area, over 2,000 dedicated volunteers donate their time and talents to Scouting.

The Council guides and supports the activities of all area PACKS, TROOPS, CREWS, POSTS and LEARNING FOR LIFE GROUPS. We encourage our volunteers and Scouts to actively promote and practice the values expressed in the Scout Oath and Law through active outdoor learning programs, service to others, leadership, training opportunities, and career education.

Join us for fun, friendships, and learning!
