VOLUNTEER
Scouting relies on volunteers. Volunteers come from
all backgrounds and experiences. Plumbers, lawyers,
homemakers, teachers, doctors, janitors, and scientists—
people from just about every occupation imaginable—are
involved in leading youth to become responsible, caring,
and competent citizens. They also quickly discover that
Scout volunteering lets them learn new skills and build
lifelong friendships while having fun.
