Boy Scout Commissioner Discusses Inclusion of Young Women in Scouting

At the 2017 Jamboree, the Commissioner of Scouting Charles Dahlquist rasied the issue of “young ladies joining Scouting....We want to do the right thing for Scouting,” Dahlquist said. “I don’t want to get 20 years down the road and have our great grandchildren say, ‘What was grandpap thinking about?’” Dahlquist said the BSA’s leaders are working to offer the same program to girls without changing or diluting Scouting values.
