The Boy Scouts of America’s NOVA Awards program incorporates learning with cool activities and exposure to science, technology, engineering and mathematics for Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Venturers. The hope is that the requirements and activities for earning these awards stimulates interest in STEM-related fields and shows how science, technology, engineering and mathematics apply to everyday living and the world around them. Counselors and mentors help bring this engaging, contemporary, and fun program to life for youth members.

Pack 295 launched the NOVA program in 2017-2018. NOVA participants will have meetings twice a month throughout the year at 6:15 pm and participate in special field trips. Parents must sign Scouts up to participate at the beginning of the Scout year.
