Training

Training?

Why we request that adults get trained

Most adults look forward to training the same as boys look forward to a meeting full of announcements. The boys want fun, excitement, and action. So do most adults... The key points to remember are summarized in the BSA mission and vision statements.

Mission Statement

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

Vision Statement

The Boy Scouts of America will prepare every eligible youth in America to become a responsible, participating citizen and leader who is guided by the Scout Oath and Law.
