Stars and stripes. Apple pie. Baseball. Scouts. All are ingrained symbols in American culture of such values and virtues as honor, integrity, bravery, family, good times, and teamwork.

In 2010, BSA and MLB's "Pitch for Scouting" program will make Scouting a prevalent fixture in 30 Major League ballparks across the U.S. and Canada as well as to the minor league level.

Activities and events will begin as early as Spring Training 2010 and will reach their full impact in late August/early September at ballparks from coast-to-coast.

For more details about the program, please review the attached Pitch for Scouting flyer provided by National. Please direct questions about the program to Jeffrey Griffin.
