What is scouting alumni?

A Scouting Alumni is anyone whose life has been touched by Scouting and who has helped support its mission, whether as a youth member, parent, volunteer, leader, donor,  employee, or advocate. What connects Scouting Alumni is not a rank, registration record, or title, but a shared belief in the values and positive impact of Scouting. Each alum has a unique story about how Scouting shaped their life or the lives of those around them. Through leadership, service, mentorship, and community involvement, they continue to carry Scouting’s influence forward. If you have been part of the Scouting journey and believe in its mission to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law, you are a Scouting Alumni.
