[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So called “boy scouts” no longer exists.  The correct name is now Scouting America:

“Scouting America has collaborated with nonprofits and youth organizations to learn best practices and identify opportunities to support people and cultures through Scouting. We've also appointed diversity leads for each of our 14 Council Service Territories to partner with the leaders and troops within their territories to implement and advance our commitment to serving youth from all backgrounds.“[/quote]
I find this so confusing - this organization seems to change its name every few years. Why is that?[/quote]

Agree it's been confusing. Their first effort at rebranding wasn't popular (don't know why) so they settled on Scouting America. This one will stick.[/quote]

I can only find one name change  after they switched to letting girls join, was there another?

I've found coed scouts tends to be succesful because families can just bring all their kids to a single event.  Almost all the girls in my son's den have older siblings in scouts.[/quote]
