"Alpha Phi Omega is not in any way affiliated with the national boy scout movement."
Incorrect. We had the affiliation of requiring, at the time, past membership in scouting to join. And chapters had scouting advisors. And we viewed council, regional, and national level professionals as almost automatic scouting advisors.
In a few years, we would receive formal approval from the BSA.
But the mistake some people make is assume that having a partnership with them means they run us. It doesn't and never did.
