Since brought to these shores by the action of an unknown
British Scout, the Boy Scouts of America has developed a rich
history which the Hillcourt Museum
tries to preserve. Since it's founding, the best and brightest have
gravitated to the BSA. We claim as past, present, and future members
presidents, astronauts, generals, sports greats and all other walks
of life. A year by year list
of actions of the BSA would show it as the most productive of all
youth organizations.
Living by the Scout Oath and Law
has been good for America.
