Its odd that BSA's site http://www.scouting.org/ doesn't mention
Explorers. I've not heard of them. Usually we try to get older boys
involved in Venture scouting to keep them interested.

Explorers are essentially a separate organization now. They were once
the only Scouting program for older boys. However, the organizational
structure of Explorers made it vulnerable to legal assault by people
who do not like Scouting or its core values, so the Venture and Varsity
programs were developed instead.


"Separate But Equal" worked for Blacks, right?
