ST. LOUIS--Ronald S. Green today was named the Scout Executive/Chief
Executive Officer of the Greater St. Louis Area Council, Boy Scouts of

counties in eastern Missouri and southern Illinois and is one of the
largest in the nation.
Green, 54, comes to St. Louis after serving six years as the Scout Executive in Columbus, Ohio. He will start on March 1, 2011.
“It is an honor and a privilege to be asked to serve this council,” Green said. “The Greater St. Louis Area Council is one of the most
highly regarded Boy Scout councils in the nation. I look forward to
working with the Executive Board and the more than 14,000 adult
volunteer leaders and staff members who deliver our Scouting programs
each week.”
Green replaces John M. Primrose, who retired last year after more
than three decades of service to the Boy Scouts of America.
