Belt Loop and Pin for Video Games

Over 10 belt loops and pins have been added to the Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program this year. Among them, video gaming is one of the most controversial to be added. Contrary to the traditional image of a scout, video gaming doesn't seem to belong. If you are puzzled like most people, this video may help answer a question or two.

Time: 6:05pm
Location: AT&T Park (map)

The Giants are proud to join the Boy Scouts of America in celebrating 100 years of Scouting with our annual Boy Scout Night! The Scouts 100th anniversary is a milestone achievement, so for the first time, the Giants will be hosting a pregame Scout tailgate in Lot D for all scouts, their families, and friends. All special event ticket holders will receive a Giants-themed Boy Scout patch, with a portion of ticket proceeds donated back to Boy Scouts of America, benefiting scouts in the Bay Area and nationwide. All uniformed scouts and scout leaders in attendance are invited to participate in a pregame honor ceremony. Bring out the whole troop for what is sure to be a special day for Scouts of all ages!
