» Friends of Scouting
Friends of Scouting is the annual fundraising appeal conducted by every Council across the country.  Specifically for the Mt. Diablo Silverado Council, FOS provides roughly a third of the money needed to operate the camps, programs and facilities. These camping and training facilities are the "outdoor classrooms" in which Scouts have fun, learn leadership skills and develop into better young men and women. The Mt. Diablo Silverado Council spends approximately $200 per Scout each year to deliver these benefits.  Click here to download the brochure.
