M ore than 100 years ago, General Robert Baden-Powell created Scouting in England in 1907. Th ree years later, on Feb. 8, 1910, Chicago publisher William Boyce founded the Boy Scouts of America. Since then Scouting has served young people and their families through a program of values-based leadership and character development. Today, Scouting is found in 185 of the world’s 192 independent countries.
