* Lake Cumberland District
* Lonesome Pine District

===Simon Kenton Council===
{{Main|Scouting in Ohio}}

In the 1990s, the BSA went through a restructuring in an attempt to reduce manpower, and in several states small historic Councils were merged into a larger ''supercouncil''.  The new '''Simon Kenton Council''', serving [[Ohio]] and Kentucky, is an example of such a supercouncil.

Includes Kentucky County: Greenup.
