Scouting programs serve youth Kindergarten through age 21, and their families. Cub Scouts is for youth K-5th grade; Scouts BSA serves youth 11-18 years old; and Venturing and Exploring serve youth 14-21 years old. The aims of Scouting across all programs are character, fitness, citizenship, and leadership skills; outdoor adventure, service, and adult mentoring are important parts of how that happens.
