Scouting Day: Fire and First Aid Event

Get ready for an adventure! South Metro's Scouting Day: Fire and First Aid is a hands-on day where kids ages 6-11 learn real-world fire safety and emergency skills while having a blast! It’s the kind of experience that builds confidence, knowledge, and creates memories you and your friends will talk about long after the day is done!

 

 Our most recent Fire & First Aid Event was held April 18th, 2026. See the recap from by Clicking Here!

Previously, "Scouting Day" was hosted just for scouts, but this year we're trying something a little different! We will still be intentionally earning Safety and First Aid badges, but this knowledge isn't exclusive to scouts!

Bring your troop or your friends - We are excited to host ALL KIDS ages 6-11! (While we’re somewhat flexible with ages, learning topics are best suited for this range).

Please reach out to ReducingRisk@SouthMetro.org with any questions.
