Action! Boy Scouts
For 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America has helped youth become
more than they ever thought possible. And we’ll continue that
journey into the next century. The Boy Scout program in the US
began in 1910 and currently is open to boys ages 11-18. Boys learn
and grow through the experiences of camping, hiking, building
projects, and community service. Scouting fosters self-esteem, a
sense of value and belonging, a sense of accountability, and
teamwork. It’s also a lot of fun! The skills learned in
Scouting help young men overcome obstacles and challenges with
courage and character throughout their lives. Geocaching offers a
new opportunity for the Boy Scouts to experience the outdoors while
honing their Scouting skills. This cache is placed in honor of all
young people in hopes that they will also take this opportunity to
enjoy the outdoors. .
