Camping and Outdoor Adventure
Scouts BSA – 11-18 years old
Scouts BSA is youth-led, which means the more senior Scouts of the Troop act as mentors to Scouts growing in the program. Adult leaders help by guiding the youth to develop leadership, ensuring that the aims of Scouting are upheld. Troops typically meet weekly, where the youth plan and prepare for special activities, outings, and camps which are typically scheduled on the occasional weekend.
