Scout Association from 1967 following The Chief Scouts' Advance Party Report 1966, which attempted to address declining participation numbers, particularly for older boys of Scout and Senior Scout ages and modernize the association's programs. The Boy Scouts Association, the largest Scout organization in the United Kingdom, made sweeping changes. The association dropped the word "Boy" from its name and from "Boy Scout" and discontinued the wearing of shorts by its Scouts because, it was claimed, they contributed to a juvenile image. The most apparent and impacting changes were: the discontinuation of Rovers. change from the iconic scout uniform items of wide-brimmed felt Scout hat and shorts to less utilitarian dress uniforms. a loss of distinction of Wolf Cubs and merging of their identity in name, badges, belt buckle emblem, salute, motto, promise and program to be Cub Scouts. Less apparent but of impact were: discontinuation of Lone Scouts forced amalgamations and de-registrations of Scout Groups not meeting minimum enrolment numbers. forced retirement ages for volunteer adult leaders. increased paid staff against a tradition and ideals of volunteer leadership. abandonment of long-used awards and training programs for entirely new schemes. shift in ideology and values e.g. changes to Promises and use of generalisations in the Scout Law. The changes caused a schism in The Scout Association resulting in the formation of the Baden-Powell Scouts' Association in 1970. Olave Baden-Powell, widow of Robert Baden-Powell, approved the use of the name. North America Traditional Scouting is followed in some groups in Canada and America, particularly among followers of Ernest Thompson Seton and Daniel Beard woodcraft and scoutcraft and where William Hillcourt was an advocate of B-P Traditional Scouting. Traditional Scouting came to North America in 1996 with the founding of the Baden-Powell Scouts' Association of Canada (B-PSAC). Forced by Industry Canada to remove "Scout" from its name, the organization renamed itself the Baden-Powell Service Association. In 2006, a group of independent Rovers in the United States formed an organization named "Baden-Powell Scouting" to promote Traditional Scouting. They were renamed the Baden-Powell Service Association (BPSA-US) in 2008, and began offering youth programs shortly thereafter. Scheme Traditional Scouting is often based on Robert Baden-Powell's book Scouting for Boys, often extended with other sources used by early Scouts such as, Ernest Thompson Seton's The Birch Bark Roll. and Daniel Carter Beard's The Boy Pioneers: Sons of Daniel Boone, making changes only for advances in health and
