Volunteer minimum age is 18. No upper age limit. It is the mission of the Boy Scouts of America to serve others by helping to instill values in young people and in other ways prepare them to make ethical choices over their lifetime in achieving their full potential. The values we strive to instill are based on those found in the Boy Scout Oath and Law. The Great Trail Council serves the youth of Summit, Portage, Medina and Northern Wayne Counties from its Service Center in Akron.
Local units meet in churches, community groups, civic organizations.
