BOY SCOUTS
Facing record low enrollment, Boy Scouts will allow girls to join (My daughter and son-in-law are both heavily involved with both programs since they have scouting age children of both sexes.  My daughter commented to me a few weeks ago that she wished there was a girl's organization like the BSA because the life and leadership values and skills that the BSA teaches boys is sadly lacking for girls in the GSA.  Unsurprisingly, she fully endorses the BSA move.)
