The Boy Scouts of America’s Georgia-Carolina
Council was established in 1922 by the Rotary Club of Augusta to prepare young
people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in
them the values of the Scout Oath and Law. Since then, the council has grown
to serve 16 counties in the greater Augusta area, including Aiken, Barnwell,
Burke, Columbia, Edgefield, Emanuel, Glascock, Jefferson, Jenkins, Lincoln,
McCormick, McDuffie, Richmond, Taliaferro, Warren and Wilkes. Today, we have
more than 80 chartered partners with 168 scouting units and more than 6,200
registered youth members and 1,500 registered volunteers.
