The Puget Sound Scout Shop is closed indefinitely. This decision was not made lightly and was due to both economic and public health challenges. We know this puts a strain on volunteers and apologize for any inconvenience. The following options are available, we will be notifying other Scout shops of the potential increase in traffic.

Order online using the Scout Shop Website
Order advancement online
Visit the Tacoma Scout Shop or Everett Scout Shop

NEW: We have worked with the Tacoma Scout Shop staff and they will now be able to accept Scout Bucks, honor your Friends of Scouting Discounts and charge to funds held in your unit account.
