Like the Y&Y,
the Boy Scouts of
America (BSA) is a
youth organization.
It builds character,
and encourages good
citizenship and
personal fitness.

Scouting began in England in
1907. Two years later an American
businessman, William Boyce, got lost
in London. A boy helped him and
explained that he was a scout. This
meeting led to the Scout Association
crossing the Atlantic in 1910.

Although scouting is mainly for
boys, there are organizations similar to
the BSA which girls can join. The Girl
Guides Association and the
coeducational Camp Fire Boys and
Girls, both of which started in 1910,
are two such groups.

In 1994, there were 5.400.000

scouts in America. Now scouting is
popular worldwide.The Scouting
Association has more than 25 million
members, making it the largest
voluntary youth organization in the
world.

Although each nation’s scouting
program differs slightly, the three aims,
established in 1907, are the same for the
21st century.
