They are dropping "Boy"....
news:
For the first time in its history, The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is set to change its name as it seeks to foster a more inclusive organization.
The rebranding will go into effect on Feb. 8, 2025, the organization’s 115th anniversary, when it will become known as "Scouting America".
Officials say the name change aims to make everyone feel welcome, while the move is also being seen as an attempt to move on from bankruptcy following a flood of sexual abuse claims. Last year BSA agreed to pay $2.46 billion to settle claims by some 82,000 former Boy Scouts who said they had been sexually abused by BSA officials and volunteers.

Next change will be "They/Them Scouts of America".???
