Boy Scouting provides a series of surmountable obstacles and steps in overcoming them through the advancement method. The Boy Scout plans his advancement and progresses at his own pace as he meets each challenge. The Boy Scout is rewarded for each achievement, which helps him gain self-confidence. The steps in the advancement system help a Boy Scout grow in self-reliance and in the ability to help others.

I told him I volunteer with the Boy Scouts..... “Wow, guess there aren’t many old ladies who need help across the street anymore, eh? Is Scouting still relevant?”

If we do this right......... then scouting promotes activities that lead to personal responsibility and high self-esteem.

As a result, when hard decisions have to be made, our scouts can resist peer pressure and the right choices can be made.
