Scouting in Kentucky Today
There are eight Boy Scouts of America local councils in Kentucky. All of Kentucky lies within Southern Region, except for these counties: Kenton, Pendleton, Campbell, Boone, Gallatin, Grant, Owen (all in Dan Beard Council - Ohio), Greenup (in Simon Kenton Council - Ohio), Carter, Boyd, Lawrence (all in Tri-State Area Council - West Virginia) and Pike (easternmost portion only in Buckskin Council - West Virginia), are part of the Central Region.
In 2009 Bracken, Mason, Robertson, Lewis, and Fleming Counties from the Simon Kenton Council merged with the Blue Grass Council for a total of 55 Kentucky Counties.
