Find Growth & Adventure in
the Boy Scouts of America
Does your child crave excitement and opportunities to develop their character? Golden Gate Area Council, Boy Scouts of America will gladly help them start their adventure with a unit that fits your needs and engrosses your child or adolescent in nature, values, and camaraderie. We offer various activities and programs to help them grow, learn, and have fun, including our Cub Scouts Packs for grades Kinder to fifth grade for good family time fun and Scouts BSA Troops for Boys and Girls from grades six through 12th, co-ed Venturing for 14 to 20 years old, Sea Scouts, and Career Exploration options in our Posts.
Ways to Get Involved with Scouting
Golden Gate Area Council invites you to take advantage of the enriching scouting events and opportunities our organization offers participants. Getting involved is as simple as attending one of our recruitment events. These events occur at the beginning of the school year and allow you to ask questions and meet the unit leader. You can also use the online application process to join with a completely digital process. If you have any questions outside a recruitment event, we invite you to contact us so we can direct you to the right district and your closest unit.

Being a Sea Scout is about more than sailing—it's about leadership, teamwork, and pushing boundaries. The Golden Gate Area Council has given me the tools to navigate life’s challenges and discover who I am.
