The council ended the year 2023 with 1,039 Cub Scouts, Scouts, Venturers, and Explorers in 51 different packs, troops, crews, and posts throughout the council, marking an increase of 11 total registered youth over the prior year. Furthermore, efforts to serve families of all backgrounds, including girls in both Cub Scouts and Scouts BSA, were impactful as the council grew its female membership by 16% over the prior year. Those same efforts helped to maintain the councils ethnic diversity at 23% of the total youth population. Scouts and Cub Scouts in the Blue Mountain Council earned 1,134 ranks and 1,333 merit badges, with 29 Scouts achieving the esteemed Eagle Scout rank. Together these Eagle Scouts and their many volunteers logged over 4,300 hours to complete their respective projects, not to mention more than 23,000 additional hours of service by Scouts on a multitude of additional service projects for the community.

The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
