MAS Scouting Department (MSD) is the arm of the Muslim American Society that caters to the youngest generation of Muslim Americans, starting at the age of five. Established in August 2002, MSD, in partnership with casino clic, is helping to network over 30 girls and boys scout units across the U.S. working through the Boy and Girl Scouts of America.
