BSA Announces Name of Older Scout Program! Scouts BSA welcomes girls and boys in 2018!
Boy Scouts of America (BSA) made history today by unveiling the new Scout Me In campaign that features girls, as well as boys, in its iconic Cub Scout program for the first time. Starting this summer, all kids are invited to say, “Scout Me In,” as they join the fun, adventure and character-building opportunities found in Cub Scouts. The campaign presents an energizing Scouting experience that speaks to kids by putting them in the middle of the action. It also engages parents who are looking for ways to make the most of the time they have with their kids and help them to be Prepared. For Life.
Starting in February 2019, the name of BSA’s older youth program will be Scouts BSA. The name of our iconic organization will continue to be Boy Scouts of America. This shows that Scouting is the heart of our program, for both boys and girls.
