Campaign for a 2nd Century
The Scouting experience is unlike any other. Once you have climbed a trail or cheered for a fellow Scout, you are changed for life. A 2nd Century Capital gift to Mid-Iowa Council ensures that you will always remain connected to Scouting and it is the best way to show your loyalty. The Fred Maytag II Scout Center will be a 16 acre urban campus right here in the heart of Des Moines. It is bringing camp to the city and creating a venue for youth to experience the outdoors in their neighborhood. It’s no coincidence, the number of America’s leaders from astronauts to business executives, have learned leadership, values and hard work through Scouting. It’s a way of life we are passionate about. We believe in the character we develop. The traditions we continue. The men our Scouts become.
“Scouting was a large part of our father’s life,
for his own personal growth, and the way
it allowed him to influence the growth
of so many young boys.
For our father, for Scouts, for Central Iowa
– we’re proud to play a role in supporting this facility”
Fritz Maytag
