| The
first week of February is often referred to as Scouting Anniversary Week
and the first Sunday in February is called Scout Sunday. This commemorates
the founding of the Boy Scouts of America via a National Charter from
Congress on February 8, 1910. Sunday is celebrated by thousands of scouts
each year at Churches and Synagogues across the United States.
On February 8, 1910, Chicago publisher William Dickson Boyce and a group of outstanding leaders filed incorporation papers for the Boy Scouts of America in the District of Columbia. The purpose, he said, "Shall be to promote, through organization, and cooperation with other agencies, the ability of boys to do things for themselves and others, to train them in Scoutcraft, and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance, and kindred virtues, using the methods which are in common use by Boy Scouts." Today
Scouting has served millions of young men aged 6-18 in a variety
of programs including Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, and Venturing.
Earning Scouting´s highest award--the Eagle Scout award--is
only acheived by 4% of boys registered. |
