The Knoxville Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting (KDCCS) needs you to participate in our programs to help make them successful. Come join our committee. We need a minimum of one scout leader from each Boy Scout, Girl Scout or American Heritage Girls unit on our committee so we can communicate effectively. We welcome everyone. If you cannot make the meetings but you still want to be on the committee to help out on activities or counsel scouts through the various religious programs then send us an email. We will be glad to add you to our email distribution list and use your help from time to time.

*Committee meetings normally occur on the 4th Wednesday each month. If the meeting date changes from the normal it will be stated in bold type, be sure to take note and mark your calendar.
