Scout
Jamboree youth member
Scout is a member of the Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts, youth organizations founded in the early twentieth century to develop outdoor skills, civic responsibility, and moral character.
Scout also serves as a given name or nickname, sometimes evoking the young narrator in Harper Lee's *To Kill a Mockingbird*. (Lowercase scout is the verb or generic noun.)
