Our Values
Our Purpose
At 56th Toronto Scouts, we are committed to fostering resilience, teamwork, and leadership among youth. With more than 60 kids currently in our program, we provide welcoming, co-ed, volunteer-run space where youth can explore their potential and connect with nature.
Through adventurous activities and community service, Scouts develop vital life skills while building lasting friendships. Together, we inspire a generation to make meaningful contributions to society.
Our Sections
Co-ed, volunteer run programs in our local community
We strive to promote learning and fun in nature, from camping trips to community service events. Each of our sections meets once per week from September - May, as well as running weekend camps year-round and a week-long adventure during the summer. Explore our programs.
Scouts
Ages 11-14
Our Scouts meet Tuesday evenings (7:00–9:00 pm) at Glenview Presbyterian Church. Their year includes weekend camps, week-long canoe trips, and even international adventures. Scouts take on exciting challenges like building trebuchets, white-water rafting, and mentoring younger sections along the way.
Venturers
Ages 15-18
Our Venturers meet on Monday nights throughout the school year at various locations around the North York, Lawrence Park, and Leaside neighbourhoods in Toronto. The Venturers plan their own camps and activities throughout the year, ranging from game nights to skill-building, to community service, to extended camping trips.
Fundraisers
Our Scouts run annual fundraisers that bring the community together and support youth programs all year long. From apples to evergreens to garden soil, each purchase helps fund camps, adventures, and activities that teach kids new skills and give back to the community.
Give the Gift of Adventure
Every child deserves the chance to explore, grow, and belong. Your donation helps Scouts in our community enjoy camps, adventures, and friendships that shape them for life. Learn more about how you can donate and ways to support us.
Together, we can make those moments possible.
