Support Scouting by Sponsoring a Unit
With more than four million youth members, the Boy Scouts of America is one of America’s most popular youth organizations. Youth join Scouting for one primary reason—to have fun! A key to Scouting’s ongoing success is in the fact that the movement recognizes that a youth’s perception of what is fun is constantly changing. In response, the Scouting program has expanded through the years to continuously offer activities and programs that challenge youth both physically and intellectually. For Scouts today, the Scouting difference is that these youth get the opportunity to experience and explore life to its fullest. Perhaps more importantly, while youth have great experiences in Scouting, they gain much more than fun. Scouts learn lessons about life, and the value of being a person of character and integrity. These lessons come through spending significant time and sharing experiences with families, Scout leaders, and fellow Scouts.
