Scouts BSA

11 – 17 year olds

Scouts BSA is an OUTDOOR program designed to develop character, citizenship, leadership, and fitness for young men and women ages 11 (or age 10 and in fifth grade — if joining after March 1 or if the Scout has earned the Arrow of Light in Cub Scouting) through 17. Scouting helps youth develop into well-rounded young adults.

The Eagle Scout Rank, the highest rank in Scouting, is recognized around the world as a mark of excellence and is available for all Scouts BSA members to earn.

Scouts can take part in many camping opportunities within their troop, including at the Indian Waters Council’s camps and at the National High Adventure Bases.

In Scouts BSA, youth take responsibility for the activities of the Troop. By planning and organizing activities, they develop teamwork and learn to lead as well as follow.

Scouting is a year round program and will work with young people who also participate in sports and other activities.
