ONSC is a local council of Scouting America serving families in the greater Greensboro area of North Carolina.
Challenges Facing Today’s Youth
Youth today face numerous distractions and challenges that can hinder their personal growth and development. From the pressures of social media to the increasing demands of school and extracurricular activities, young people often struggle to find their path. These challenges can lead to a lack of confidence, direction, and critical life skills necessary for a successful future.
Adventure
Scouting introduces youth to the great outdoors and teaches them about their place in it.
Leadership
Scouts learn to delegate, communicate effectively, and motivate others toward common goals.
Service
With the guidance of adult leaders, Scouts are better prepared for a lifelong journey to personal success.
Our Commitment & Guidance
Old North State Council (ONSC), a division of Scouting America, is here to guide and support the youth and families of the greater Greensboro area. With a strong commitment to building character and leadership, ONSC offers a structured and enriching environment where young people can thrive.
