Since its start in 1910, more than 130 million young men and women have participated in the BSA’s programs. More than 35 million adult volunteers have helped carry out the BSA’s mission.

BSA programs are divided by age and activity: Cub Scouting is for boys and girls in K through 5 th grade, Scouts BSA is open to young men and young women in grades 6 through 12. The BSA also offers career-oriented co-ed Exploring programs to youth age 10 through 20.
