Why Scouts?
Scouting prepares youth for life.
Scouting creates a framework to prepare our children to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.
Results don't lie.
Youth completing the Scouting program are more likely to:
-
Have advanced planning & preparation skills, be goal-oriented, and network with others
-
Be leaders at work & in the community
-
Have closer relationships with family & friends
-
Volunteer in their community
-
Donate to charitable groups
-
Work with others to improve their neighborhoods
