Until 2021, the Boy Scouts of America was divided into four regions for administrative purposes — Central, Southern, Western, and Northeast.[1] Each region was then subdivided into areas. Each region had a volunteer president, assisted by volunteer officers and board members, and the day-to-day work of Scouting was managed by the regional director, assistant and associate regional directors, and area directors. Regions and areas were subdivisions of the National Council and did not have a corporate status separate from the BSA.[2]
Background
editRegions were replaced by National Service Territories in June 2021.[3]
