Boy Scouts of America…

Incorporated on February 8, 1910 and chartered by Congress in 1916, was founded to provide an educational program for boys and young adults.

Scouting is a values-based program with its own code of conduct. The Scout Oath and Law help instill the values of good conduct, respect for others, and honesty. Scouts learn skills that will last a lifetime, including basic outdoor skills, first aid, citizenship skills, leadership skills, and how to get along with others. For almost a century, Scouting has instilled in young men the values and knowledge that they will need to become leaders in their communities and country.

- Happy Scouting
