friends of stoneham scouting
Scouting in Stoneham is supported by the registered non-profit Friends of Stoneham Scouting. The purpose of the Friends of Stoneham Scouting is to provide financial support so that the cost of Scouting never prevents youth from participating. We frequently subsidize the cost of high adventure trips like whitewater rafting, weeklong canoe trips, or the troop's annual trip to summer camp.
