The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) is changing its name for the first time in its 108-year history.

The scouting organization, originally designed for boys ages 11–17, will be called Scouts: BSA starting in February, The Associated Press reported.

The move to a gender-neutral name arrives on the heels of the organization’s decision to accept girls into its ranks next year.

Girls already started enrolling as Cub Scouts this year, and more than 3,000 have reportedly joined so far.
