Local NESA Committees - The National Eagle Scout Association

Get Involved with Your Local NESA Committee

Volunteering with your local NESA committee is one of the most fulfilling and impactful ways to perpetuate the mission, values, and time-honored traditions of Scouting for future generations. There are so many ways to get involved. Whether you volunteer with a pack, den, or troop or help at the council level, youth across America will benefit from the skills you bring to the table.

Take the first step by finding your local council committee below.

Find Your Local Council

The Directory of BSA Alumni

SPARK is a new tool that allows Scouters to opt-in to connect and engage with fellow alumni. In cooperation with National staff, the BSA Alumni Association National Committee has developed a BSA Alumni directory called SPARK. In addition to “sparking” connections with old and new Scout friends, this tool allows you to update your contact information and certain aspects of your Scouting history. It can search by name, council and unit affiliation, occupation, and much more.
