Scouting the Moon

Scouting the Moon is a trail-running event in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, hosted by Scouts BSA Troop 198. The third annual races offer two distances: a 5K Run/Walk through Moon Park and a 10K Trail Run through Montour Woods. The event emphasizes Scout values such as leadership, service, and character, with proceeds funding camping gear, merit badges, leadership recognition, and scholarships for summer camp and year‑round outdoor activities.

Highlights include a race T‑shirt for all participants (while supplies last), custom wooden finisher medals, and awards for top male and female finishers in both distances. The courses run through Moon Park trails and Montour Woods, with the start/finish at Clearview Pavilion, 1350 Joe DeNardo Way, Moon Township, PA 15108.
