This week, we’re talking about scouting in Atlanta - the Boys Scouts and Girl Scouts. How the groups started, who started them and a few fun stories from history. Atlanta’s history of scouting is really a 4-part story - the story of white Girl Scouts and Black Girl Scouts and white Boy Scouts and Black Boy Scouts. Unsurprisingly, the year that these groups begin vary wildly, the latter often the result of a dedicated local grassroots effort.
