Following reports of sharp drops in participation, the Boy Scouts of America recently announced girls will be admitted into the Cub Scouts starting next year and a new program will be established geared toward older girls achieving the Eagle Scout rank. There will continue to be a ban on co-ed overnight camping trips for Scouts age 11-14. The Girl Scouts also will continue to be single-sex.
