"BPSA believes that all people and all families should have an equal place in the scouting movement. We welcome scouts and their families as they come to us, and we will do our best to make scouting and its activities accessible to every child or adult who wishes to join. Our mission statement is as follows:
BPSA welcomes everyone, regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, class, ability, religion (or no religion), or other differentiating factors. Our mission is to provide a positive learning environment within the context of democratic participation and social justice. We foster the development of scouts in an environment of mutual respect and cooperation."

28th South Mountain, NJ
We are a group of individuals and families living near the South Mountain Reservation, bringing NJ its first and only Baden Powell Service Association Scouting group. The Baden Powell Service Association-US offers inclusive, classic scouting to all regardless of gender identity, race, religious choice, income, ability or nationality. We currently meet 1-2X a month Sunday afternoons. Some of us have experience with other scout organizations while for some this is their first scouting experience.
We scout outdoors as often as we can, holding most of our meetings outside. We will meet even in rainy or cold weather so it's important our members have or borrow a good set of rain gear and layers. The 28th camps as a scout group 3-4 times a year and enjoys local camporees such as the PA/NJballoo Camp & the Northeast Moot.
Our group depends on its volunteers and ask our families to contribute by taking on various tasks which vary from assisting leaders to serving as grubmaster at camping trips.
