Personally, I had a little difficulty finding how to find information on local troops and how to get involved on a local level from the national site. I sill don't know how I eventually got to an area that let me search by location and zip code.
Here is what I found for Miramar, Florida. Two Cub Scout Packs on opposite ends of Miramar and two Boy Scout Troops that appear to be nearby in western Miramar. I encourage you to use the information below as a starting point to see how you and your sons can get involved in this great organization. Please report any valuable information to me here as it will help your fellow residents as well.
And soon, a post about another great organization. The Girl Scouts!

Same thing with this troop--in Miramar, but the same Miami Lakes contact information. If you find something out, let me know.
And don't forget to volunteer if you can! Very rewarding. I wish I had the time.
Always memorable, here are some of the words the Boy Scouts live by:
Boy Scout Oath
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.
Boy Scout Law
A Scout is:
Trustworthy,
Loyal,
Helpful,
Friendly,
Courteous,
Kind,
Obedient,
Cheerful,
Thrifty,
Brave,
Clean,
and Reverent.
Boy Scout Motto
Be Prepared!
