The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is now all-gender for all youth. Formerly Boy Scouts, Scouts BSA is for youth ages 10 to 17. All scouting must be completed prior to turning 18 years of age. You do not need to be graduating Cub Scouts nor have any scouting experience to join us.
Scouts BSA Troop 008 (or Troop 8) is for all Benicia boys ages 10-17. We are one of two all-boys Troops in town, the other being Troop 007. We collaborate with them and Troop 009, the all-girl Troop in town. We further collaborate with Cub Scout Pack 108 (we serve as Den Chiefs for them), Sea Scout Ship 91, and Venturing Crew 78.
Our Chartering Organization is the Benicia Lions Club .
