The Boy Scouts provides a program for young people that builds character, trains them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal fitness. Through year-round Scouting programs and our three summer camp facilities, young people have the opportunity to explore the world and develop skills like confidence and leadership to help them be successful in life.
