Pacifica District

Welcome to the Pacifica District

We proudly serve the vibrant Southern California communities of El Segundo, Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, Torrance, Gardena, Carson, Wilmington, Lomita, Harbor City, Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes, Rolling Hills Estates, and San Pedro.

Our annual calendar is filled with exciting events, including a Camporee in the Spring, a Cub Day Camp during the Summer, a Webelos event in the Fall, District Pinewood Derby, Soapbox Derby, Volunteer Service Projects, Hiking and Backpacking Training, and engaging Sea Scout Activities.

The Pacifica District is committed to providing a comprehensive youth program focused on character development and values-based leadership training. Our mission is to help young people become “Prepared. For Life.” The District comprises dedicated youth members aged 5 to 21 and passionate volunteers who contribute to the well-being of our communities.

Our programs are tailored to different age groups and interests. Cub Scouting is designed for boys and girls in kindergarten through 5th grade, Scouts BSA welcomes young men and young women in grades 6 through 12, while co-ed Venturing and Sea Scouting cater to those aged 14 through 20. Additionally, we offer career-oriented co-ed Exploring programs for youth aged 10 through 20.

Friends of Scouting Annual Giving Campaign

Investing in the Future of Scouting

The Friends of Scouting (FOS) campaign is an investment beyond national membership fees and basic registration, which cover only a fraction of Scouting’s costs. Without your support, our council’s infrastructure, programs, and volunteer training are at risk, potentially leading to camp closures and fewer opportunities for Scouts.

Your contribution helps to:

Keep camp fees affordable for all families
Strengthen council infrastructure to support local units
Maintain and improve camp properties for outdoor adventures
Enhance volunteer training to ensure a high-quality program
Fund camperships and Scoutreach, providing opportunities for all youth

Your generosity ensures Scouting remains strong and accessible in our community.
