E-cigarettes, Vaping Added to BSA’s Tobacco Use Policy

November 11, 2014

In May 2014, the Risk Management Advisory panel (RMAP) which is made up of two Scout executives from each region passed a motion recommending to the Chief Scout Executive that vaping be added to BSA’s tobacco use policy.

Chief Scout Executive Wayne Brock has approved this recommendation and therefore, effective with the October 2014 “Guide To Safe Scouting” electronic updates concerning Section IV Alcohol, Tobacco and Drug Use and Abuse (second paragraph) contains a new sentence stating: “This includes the use of electronic cigarettes, personal vaporizers or electronic nicotine delivery systems which simulates tobacco smoking.”
