The resolution welcomes the Narragansett Council, Scouting America, to the Rhode Island State House on March 24, 2026, and celebrates Scouting Month in February. The Narragansett Council, a significant youth development organization since its founding in 1910, serves the entire state of Rhode Island and neighboring areas, providing programs that promote leadership, self-sufficiency, and community service among youth. In 2025, the Council experienced an increase in participation, with over 1,500 new Scouts joining, and they actively supported their communities during challenging times, such as collecting food for local pantries during a federal government shutdown.

The resolution highlights the various programs and camps operated by the Narragansett Council, including Camp Yawgoog and the Adventure Base Camp at Camp Champlin, which offer enriching experiences and skill development for youth. The Council has also made strides in inclusivity, with a growing number of girl Scouts since their official inclusion in 2019. The House of Representatives expresses gratitude for the positive impact the Scouts and their leaders have on the community and acknowledges the valuable experiences they provide to over 6,800 youth and their families in Rhode Island.
