Greetings:

Thank you for visiting the Yucca Council Website and your support for Scouting. These are great times for Boy Scouts of America. Since 1910, over 144 million youth and their families have enjoyed Scouting’s quality programs delivered by quality volunteers.

Today, Scouting is more than 3 million strong nationally and making a huge impact locally by serving over 6,000 youth in 249 programs in the Yucca Council, which services Southern New Mexico and West Texas. An army of dedicated volunteers serving as Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, Venturing Crew Advisors, Explorer Post Advisors, Assistants, District Committee Members, Commissioners and Council Executive Board Members continue to ensure that leadership, service, and citizenship are practiced by our youth members.

As we prepare for 2012, our volunteers are focused on the “main thing,” our youth and providing more families the opportunity to be a part of our nation’s premier youth program that teaches character development and values found in the Scout Oath and Law.

Your participation in Scouting is a demonstration of your support for the Boy Scouts of America and the youth we serve. Again, thank you very much!

Yours in Scouting,


David J. Jones
Scout Executive/C.E.O
