Scout Shop Open

for Business!

The Mecklenburg County Council Scout Shop, despite the May flood damage, is open for business in temporary quarters in the board room at the council office. We are fully stocked with merchandise and ready for your visit!

Keep watching the website for dates of a "sidewalk sale" of formerly damp merchandise and the Grand Shop Reopening in late August. Meanwhile, a total overhaul of the store is in progress from new fixtures to new carpet and ceiling tile. When completed there will be more useable space for shop inventory.

The shop is open Monday-Friday from 8:45 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Finally, remember only at our local Scout Shop on 7th Street does all revenue from sales go to support Scouts in Mecklenburg County!
