PowerPoint Presentation: 3. Waite Phillips (January 19, 1883–January 27, 1964) was an American oil pioneer and businessman, who created a fully integrated oil operation combining producing, refining and marketing. With headquarters in Tulsa, Oklahoma, he also developed several office complexes and engaged in banking as well as ranching.

He was also a major philanthropist, both for local Tulsa institutions as well as national causes. In Tulsa he had a 72-room mansion built as a residence, which he later donated to the city. It became the Philbrook Museum of Art. In other philanthropy, he donated 127,000 acres of his favorite ranch in New Mexico to the Boy Scouts of America, together with an office building as part of its endowment.

PowerPoint Presentation: 4. Ernest Thompson Seton (August 14, 1860 – October 23, 1946) was a Scots-Canadian (and naturalized U.S. Citizen) who became a noted author, wildlife artist, founder of the Woodcraft Indians, and one of the founding pioneers of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). Seton also heavily influenced Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of Scouting. His notable books related to Scouting include The Birch Bark Roll and The Boy Scout Handbook. He is responsible for the strong influence of American Indian culture in the BSA. PowerPoint Presentation: 4.

Boys’ Life magazine Boys' Life is the monthly magazine of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). Its targeted readership is young American males between the ages of 6 and 18. Boys' Life is published in two demographic editions.

Both editions often have the same cover, but are tuned to the target audience through the inclusion of 16-20 pages of unique content per edition. The first edition is suitable for the youngest members of Cub Scouting, the 6-10 year-old Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts and 1st-year Webelos Scouts. The second edition is appropriate for 11-18 year old boys, which includes 2nd-year Webelos through 18-year old Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts and Venturers. If the subscription is obtained through registration in the Boy Scouts of America program, the publisher will select the appropriate edition based on the boy's age. PowerPoint Presentation: With the guidance of his friend Rudyard Kipling’s children’s book The Jungle Book, Lord Baden-Powell developed Cubbing in 1907 for younger boys. In America, Ernest Thompson Seton proposed the addition of a Cub program before his departure from the Boy Scouts in 1915. The first American Cub Scout packs were chartered beginning in 1930 with approximately 8,000 boys.

The original program was simply called “Cubbing” and was later changed to Cub Scouts of America. Cub Scouts offers a program for boys 6-10 years old that helps them prepare for entering the Boy Scout program. Scouts earn the ranks of Bobcat, Tiger, Wolf, Bear and Webelos before going on to earn their Arrow of Light and bridging into Boy Scouts. Cub Scouts is not a mandatory step to becoming a Boy Scout. Cub Scouts must earn their Bobcat badge, but are not required to finish any other rank before they are allowed to bridge into Boy Scouts.

PowerPoint Presentation: Boy Scouting is the elder member in the family of Scouting. Founded in England in 1907 by Lord Robert Baden-Powell, it was brought over to the United States and further developed by men such as William D. Boyce, Ernest Thompson Seton, Daniel Carter Beard and James E. The Boy Scouting program in America was founded on February 8, 1910. At that time the BSA defined the program’s purpose as, “to teach boys patriotism, courage, self-reliance, and kindred values.“ And today that mission is, “to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law.“ Scouts learn outdoor skills, citizenship, and personal fitness throughout their time in the Boy Scouting program. A boy may join the Boy Scouting program at the age of 11, or may bridge into the program from Cub Scouting in the 5 th grade.

Eligibility ends at the age of 18. During that time a Scout will work on skills that eventually lead to rank advancement from Scout, Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star, Life and Eagle Scout. Scouts can supplement the skills they are expected to develop in the ranks of Scout-First class through the Merit Badge Program.

Merit Badges offer Boy Scouts the opportunity to learn about new skills and possible career paths. In addition, a Scout must earn a minimum of 21 merit badges to earn the rank of Eagle Scout. Of those 21, 12 are “Eagle Required.” Though the program has remained largely the same, different skills have been added to the program to help Scouts prepare for adulthood. Boy Scouting. PowerPoint Presentation: Founded in 1984, Varsity was developed to allow boys aged 14-18 interested in sports and high adventure to continue working on Boy Scout rank through special Varsity units. The program faced a number of challenges, which among other things saw the development of Varsity Patrols and Venturing Patrols within Troops to address older boy interests in Sports and High Adventure. Today, the Varsity Scouting program is devoted almost entirely to the interest in Sports.

Unlike it’s other Senior Scouting brother programs, Varsity is for boys only. Varsity Scouting offers Scouts an alternative to the traditional Troop structure, while still allowing Scouts to work on rank advancement. Varsity Scouting. PowerPoint Presentation: Senior Scouting, as the older boy programs were generally referred to as until the 1950’s, focuses on the development of skills outside of the normal Boy Scouting program. The oldest member of the Senior Scouting movement are the Sea Scouts who have their origins dating back as early as 1912.

Additional programs have existed including Air Scouts and Exploring. By the 1950’s Air Scouting was eliminated and in 1998 Exploring officially became Venturing. The Senior Scouting program name of Explorer Scouts changed as well to Venturing Scouts. The Venturing program is available to both Boys and Girls ages 14-21 and has an independent structure from the Boy Scout program. In Sea Scouts individuals work towards their Quartermaster Award and Venturing Scouts work toward their Ranger Award. Unlike Varsity Scouting, Sea Scouts and Venturers are unable to work on Boy Scout ranks unless they are a youth male under the age of 18 registered with a Boy Scout troop. The Venturing program varies in interest depending on the Venturing Crew.

The main focus of many Crews is High Adventure, but there are Crews for Community Service, Chess playing and other interests. The goal of Venturing is to help develop the interests and skills of young men and women. PowerPoint Presentation: The Explorer Scouting Program was founded in 1949 under the then called Senior Scouting. Explorers allowed Scouts the opportunity to explore various career opportunities and high adventure. By 1959 the Boy Scouts of America changed the name of the Senior Scouting program to Exploring Scouting. Through Scouts and schools, the Exploring program opened the doors to various career paths for young people to explore. In schools, the program focused on the helping students explore careers and make right choices.

In 1961 girls gained the right to participate in the Exploring Program and by 1971 they gained full membership. In 1998, the Explorers program specifically was removed from the Boy Scouts of America list of official programs and moved under the BSA subsidiary organization Learning for Life. Today, the high adventure and special interest program is called Venturing. PowerPoint Presentation: The Order of the Arrow was founded in 1915 but did not receive official BSA sanction until 1948.

Founded by E. Urner Goodman in 1915, the Order of the Arrow focuses around Native American traditions and legends in an effort to help Scouts become better campers. Through it’s three stages (Ordeal, Brotherhood and Honor Vigil) Scouts and select Scouters learn how to give back to Scouting and their community through camp related service. Membership in the OA is through election only, by both Members and Non-Members on the Troop level. Only registered Boy Scouts are allowed membership. Order of the Arrow. PowerPoint Presentation: 4.

PowerPoint Presentation: Jamboree The national Scout jamboree is a gathering, or jamboree of thousands of members of the Boy Scouts of America, usually held every four years and organized by the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Referred to as 'the Jamboree', ' Jambo ', or NSJ, Scouts from all over the nation and world have the opportunity to attend. They are considered to be one of several unique experiences that the Boy Scouts of America offers.

The first jamboree was scheduled to be held in 1935 in Washington, D.C. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Scouting, but was delayed two years. The 1937 jamboree in the Nation's Capital attracted 25,000 Scouts, who camped around the Washington Monument and Tidal Basin. The event was covered extensively by national media and attended by President Franklin D. Following the disruption of World War II, the next jamboree was not held until 1950 in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. Subsequent jamborees have been held around the country as a means to promoting Scouting nationally.

Since 1981, the jamboree has been located Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia. Future jamborees will be held at The Summit: Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve in West Virginia.

A jamboree is held for ten consecutive days and offers many activities for youth participants and the 300,000 members of the general public who visit it. It is considered to be Scouting at its best. PowerPoint Presentation: National Scouting Museum The National Scouting Museum was opened in 1959 in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In 1986 it was moved to Murray, Kentucky on the campus of Murray State University. The mission of the National Scouting is, “To preserve the legacy of Scouting and promote the movement to future generations.” The NSM accomplishes this through the display of artifacts from all periods in Scouting history and from all over the world. In 2000 the Boy Scouts of America closed the museum at Murray State and moved it to Irving, Texas where a new museum opened on October 10, 2002. The National Scouting Museum continues to support future generation of Scouts through advancement workshops designed for Cub Scouts, Webelos and Boy Scouts.
