What Is the Pen Pal Club?
The Scout Pen Pal Club is a fun way for kids to connect with Scout through handwritten letters. Kids can share their adventures, ask questions, tell Scout about their troop, or send drawings. Scout reads every letter and sends a friendly note back!
Why Write to Scout?
Writing letters helps kids build confidence, practice communication skills, and express creativity. Scout loves hearing about nature walks, STEM projects, troop meetings, and everyday adventures. Every letter helps kids feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
How It Works
To begin the adventure, families or troop leaders can register for a paid membership to join our Scout Pen Pal Club.
Step 2 — Write Your Letter
Time to be creative. Have your explorer write to Scout about their big adventures, curiosities, or send a colorful drawing.
Step 3 — Mail Your Letter
Once you join, we'll share a secret mailing address with you so you can send your child's masterpieces directly to Scout.
Step 4 — Get a Letter Back
Scout will send a personalized note back to your explorer. Each reply is written with care to encourage curiosity, confidence, and a love of adventure.
Mail Your Letter to Scout.
Send your letter or drawing to Scout using the address provided.
Please include your name and return address so Scout can write back!
