Connect With A Scout Unit
Meaningful, adventure-based program for boys and girls in kindergarten through fifth grade.
As a member of a Scouts BSA Troop, boys and girls ages 11-17 learn to become leaders as they work toward Scouting’s highest rank: Eagle.
The Venturing Program aims to progress the values of the Scout Oath and Law while providing leadership opportunities to youth through a youth led program.
Sea Scouting has a particular emphasis on boating and water-based activities for girls and boys ages 14 to 20. Sea Scouts may sail or cruise on boats, learn navigation, learn how to work on engines and compete in regional events.
The Exploring Program connects youth with hands-on experience in different career fields to prepare them for their future. One-on-one mentorship opportunities and connection to the community serve to aid youth in discovering new and exciting career paths.
We are excited you are interested in joining Scouting!

The Scout Oath & Law
For over a century, the BSA has helped build the future leaders of this country by combining educational activities and lifelong values with fun. Scouting offers a wide range of age specific programs designed for boys from kindergarten to age 20. All emphasize a “learn by doing” approach that builds competence, leadership, teamwork, physical fitness, mental acuity, the spirit of citizenship and the pride of community service combined with a zest for adventure. New members are welcome year-round and no prior experience is required.
Scout Oath
The Scout Oath: On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.
Scout Law
The Scout Law has 12 points. Each is a goal for every Scout. A Scout tries to live up to the Law every day. It is not always easy to do, but a Scout always tries.
