Mission
THE MIDDLE TENNESSEE COUNCIL BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA WAS FOUNDED IN 1920 AND EXISTS TODAY TO SERVE OTHERS BY HELPING TO INSTILL VALUES IN YOUNG PEOPLE AND PREPARE THEM TO MAKE ETHICAL CHOICES DURING THEIR LIFETIME AND ACHIEVE THEIR FULL POTENTIAL. COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS RECEIVE NATIONAL CHARTERS TO USE THE SCOUTING PROGRAM AS PART OF THEIR OWN YOUTH WORK IN THE MIDDLE TENNESSEE COUNCIL. THESE 1,149 UNITS IN OUR COUNCIL HAVE GOALS COMPATIBLE WITH THOSE OF THE BSA AND INCLUDE RELIGIOUS, EDUCATIONAL, CIVIC, FRATERNAL, BUSINESS AND LABOR GROUPS, GOVERNMENTS, CORPORATIONS, PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS AND CITIZENS' GROUPS.
