Whither The Webelos?

The Boy Scouts are on the decline amidst changing times, money woes, lawsuits, you know the general drift. But the larger question, even apart from the organizational troubles, is whether scouting in general -- small "s," not the Boy Scouts in particular -- is a relic. I wonder if what the Boy Scouts were selling, like discipline and wilderness skills, can compete with kids just going out and rock climbing and parkouring and doing what kids do in 2019 do when they're not playing video games.
