ABOUT THE BSASlide5

WHY SCOUTING

Scouts

do stuff. They build things. Play with purpose. Make friends and work together. Set goals and achieve them. They go places. Physically. Mentally. Spiritually. These life-changing

experiences – and

the confidence they

provide – form

a foundation

a

Scout can stand on to embrace opportunity and overcome obstacles in life.It’s not a question of where they will go, but where won’t they go. Slide6

WHY SCOUTING

Scouting provides experiences that help prepare youth for their future. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that influence

their adult lives.

Scouting provides the

opportunity to:

Try new things

Provide service to others

Build self-confidence

Reinforce ethical

decision makingSlide7

CUB SCOUTING

Cub Scouting is the foundation of our organization. Cub Scouting is where the adventure begins.

Cub Scouting focuses on building character, improving physical fitness, teaching practical skills, and

having fun!

For boys in first through fifth grades, Cub Scouting involves the whole family as

parents

pitch in to plan and

deliver

activities. Cub Scouting emphasizes doing one’s best.Slide8

BOY SCOUTING

Boy Scouting allows young men

to go places, test themselves, and have one-of-a-kind adventures

that can’t be had anywhere else. The life lessons learned transform today’s Boy Scouts into tomorrow’s leaders.

The Boy Scouting experience is for young men in fifth grade through high school.

Service

,

community engagement

, and leadership development become increasingly important parts of the program as youth lead their own activities and

work

their way toward earning Scouting’s highest rank,

Eagle

Scout. Slide9

Scouting encourages youth

to learn and grow by advancing through “ranks”

in the organization.

The highest rank, Eagle Scout, requires an enormous amount of hard work, dedication,

and leadership.

An Eagle Scout has proven his character and leadership by making a positive impact in his own life, his family, and

his community.

WHAT IS AN

EAGLE SCOUT?

WHILE OUR PROGRAMS ARE FUN AND EXCITING FOR YOUTH, THEY ALSO TEACH LIFE LESSONS CENTERED ON THE FOUR PILLARS OF SCOUTING:Slide10

VENTURING

Venturing’s

purpose is to provide positive experiences to help young people mature and to prepare

them

to become responsible and caring adults.

This coed

program for young adults ages 13 (and have completed the

eighth

grade) through 20 focuses on adventure, leadership, personal growth, and service.

Venturing’s motto, “Lead the Adventure,” reminds Venturers

to

always

pursue

life in the spirit

of

adventure. Slide11

WHY BECOME A CHARTERED ORGANIZATION?

Scouting provides a unique opportunity for chartered organizations to bring stronger service to the community while offering fun and adventure to their own youth and families.

By working together, your organization and Scouting can combine time and other

resources

that result in stronger, more confident children and

more

productive families

and

communities. A relationship with Scouting can

also

help your organization

to fulfill

its mission and

strengthen its

outreach efforts.Slide13
