Boy Scouts of America North Florida Council

The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices in their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scouts Oath and Law. The Thompson S. Baker Scout Service Center, located at 521 S. Edgewood Avenue in Jacksonville, Florida, serves as the operations base for all of the Council's activities throughout the year. The Scout Service Center is the catalyst for policy, planning, information, and most significantly, the stimulation and inspiration that mobilizes our tremendous volunteer organization. The Scout Service Center enables key volunteer leadership and community resources to promote and enrich the Scouting program for thousands of youth and adult members in north east Florida.
