Our Scout Shops

We are Hiring at the Rockford Scout Shop

Working for the BSA is always an adventure. Working for the Scout Shop is not just a retail sales job. You get to help volunteers on a daily basis navigate the BSA Programs.  Job does require some sales experience, cash handling, sewing experience (we can teach) the ability to have fun and help customers find what they need and items they didn’t know they needed.

We are looking for a few good people to share their love of Scouting this fall. Recruitment season is just around the corner and we need people to help guide the new Scouts and Scouters in their journey with uniform needs.

Looking to be part of a positive workplace, have a flexible schedule, get great discounts, and help to move Scouting forward? Come down to the Rockford Scout Shop, grab an application, and ask to speak to Charles.

EPA AWARD 2021 YEAR ONLY – in-store now-The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has partnered with the Boy Scouts of America to create an award for members of troops, crews and ships. This award will recognize youth who research and learn about the subjects of human health and the environment, as the EPA develops its vision for the next 50 years. The objective of the EPA award is to combine a variety of disciplines to challenge and educate youth; introduce them to the breadth of the EPA’s involvement in environmental protection and conservation; and encourage them to research, investigate, experiment, demonstrate, survey, and study air pollution, water pollution, solid and hazardous waste, and ocean dumping.
In addition to merit badge requirements, youth must participate in an environmental/public health community service project as part of an approved Scouting program(Jan. 1, 21 – Dec. 31, 21). Completed applications must be submitted by leaders to the local Scout Shop to receive the FREE commemorative patch
