This resolution commends the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) in Georgia, recognizing their significant contributions to youth development and community service. The resolution highlights that the Georgia BSA is a robust organization with over 40,000 scouts and 3,500 adult leaders in more than 600 units, dedicated to training youth in responsible citizenship, character development, and self-reliance through outdoor activities, educational programs, and service projects. The resolution officially designates February 26, 2025, as Scouts Day at the Capitol, which provides an opportunity for scouts to learn about government and interact with state representatives. By formally resolving, the Georgia House of Representatives acknowledges the BSA's commitment to scouting principles and encourages elected officials to participate in the day's events to show appreciation for the organization. Additionally, the resolution directs the House Clerk to make copies of the resolution available for public and press distribution, ensuring broader recognition of the BSA's important work in the state.
