In May of 2018, the Boy Scouts of America changed a major part of their organization. For the first time their 108 history they allowed girls to join. Since then, over 140,000 girls have joined their ranks.
Not only are these new scouts enjoying the knowledge handed down to their troupes, they re excelling! In fact, Louisiana now has its first ever female Eagle Scouts! If you were ever part of the organization, you know what an accomplishment that really is. I myself only made it to the Webelo-level of scouting. To become an Eagle Scout requires a level of dedication above and beyond what most people display during their time chasing badges.
One of my favorite memories growing up is of my time in the Boy Scout program, merit badge by merit badge I made my way up the ranks. Of course there was lots of popcorn sold. but hey that s part of the fun! Between camp-outs, pinewood derby cars, and all the crafts in-between, there was genuine and memorable fun to be had during my time in the scouts.
A few years back, there was some real buzz a few years back when the idea of extending scout membership to include girls came about. It was quite the hot topic for a period of time. The usual short-sighted preconception of the Boy Scouts being restricted to a Boys-Only Club and such floated around, if memory serves me correctly. Don t get me wrong, I see the point in having that mindset however, they honestly they have little if any merit.
