Drug, Alcohol and Tobacco Use

The Boy Scouts of America Logo The Boy Scouts of America prohibits the use of alcoholic beverages and controlled substances at encampments or activities on property owned or operated by the Boy Scouts of America, or at any activity involving participation of youth members. "

Adult leaders should support the attitude that young adults are better off without tobacco and may not allow the use of tobacco products at any BSA activity involving youth participants.” Scoutmaster’s Handbook, p.131, copyright 1999
