The Boy Scouts is open to young men ages 11 to 18. The program provides opportunities for individual and group achievement through merit badge programs, rank advancement and community service projects. In addition, camping and outdoor activities are part of the Scout life.

Dedicated to promoting self-discipline, goal-setting and achievement, personal growth, civic awareness and community volunteerism, the Boy Scouts provides an environment in which a young man can challenge himself physically, mentally and spiritually.

The mission statement of the Boy Scouts is this:

"The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young men to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law."
