Join us at our Over the Edge for Scouting Rappelling Day in downtown Baton Rouge!

Over the Edge for Scouting Rappelling Day brings together top corporate and community leaders to strengthen our families and communities through Scouting. Rappellers will enjoy a fun-filled day rappelling down the river side at The Rivermark Centre in downtown Baton Rouge.

Proceeds from this event will support local Scouting programs within the Council providing experiences that develop self-esteem, character values, and life skills and enhance the lives of young people across our community.

When:  Wednesday, October 29, 2025 - 9:00 am - 5:00 pm

Where:  The Rivermark Centre, 450 Laurel Street, Floor 8, Baton Rouge, LA 70801

Attire:   Comfortable, breathable, and moisture-wicking clothing like activewear or athletic pants and shirts, avoiding loose or dangling items that could snag on ropes or equipment. Sturdy, closed-toe shoes like hiking boots or sneakers are recommended. 

This will be a Halloween themed event this year, so costumes are encouraged, but not required. Accessories will be allowed, but will have to be vetted through the OTE crew.

Details:  Scouting America is the Nation’s leading outdoor education and character development program. The mission of Scouting America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.

The impact of these values can be seen in the many young people who have come through Scouting and have gone on to become productive members of their communities. The Scouting program continues to help address many of the challenges facing our youth today and is leaving a proud legacy of outstanding citizens.

Please consider associating your company with Scouting America, one of the Nation’s most trusted non-profit organization for more than 115 years. Let our track record of success reflect positively on your organization. Place your corporate logo on the Over the Edge for Scouting Rappelling Day Materials and be seen by a highly targeted demographic. This event enables Scouting America to continue the much-needed youth programs right here in Louisiana.

EJ Moore

I have been a scout/scouter in the Istrouma Area Council since 1981 in all those years the Council and camp have been my home. The opportunities to experience some amazing places and meet some wonderful people is all because of Scouting so I can think of no better way to be of service.

Lawrence Flad

This is an opportunity for me to give back to scouting which has provided many great experiences and leadership opportunities. As an Eagle Scout it is important to me to help scouting as much as scouting helps me.

Louis Hebert

In my long history with Scouting I’ve experienced first hand how Scouting builds servant-leaders.  By participating in this event I’m stating that the benefits of Scouting are as relevant today as ever.  It’ll be great fun too!

Stephen Davidson

I have been a scout / scouter in the Istrouma Area Council since 1995. Scouting has shaped me into the person I am today through countless experiences of Camp Staff, Philmont, numerous National Jamborees, Wood Badge Courses and interacting with other people who believe in the program. I have a love for climbing and rappelling and wouldn't trade this opportunity for anything to benefit such a valuable program that I benefited from not only as a youth but as an adult. The leadership training and opportunities this program provides to shape people to be better leaders is why I still support Scouting today, once an Eagle always an Eagle. It will be fun to rappel so come join me.
