A Scouter is a person who, week after week,
month after month, provides fun, adventure challenge, and learning for our
active children;
A Scouter hurries home, eats a quick meal, puts on a uniform while answering the
phone five times, and arrives smiling to meet the youngsters, all in 30 minutes;
A Scouter gives up weekends and home comforts to teach children about woodcraft,
nature, and camaraderie;
A Scouter is somebody who can put up a tent in the rain and dark, find lost
boots, dry bedding, handle asthma, blisters, homesickness, and children's
excitement on four hours sleep--and g
A Scouter is committed, caring, hardworking, sturdy, strong, reliable--with a
wealth of knowledge, a store of skills, and a heart of gold;
A Scouter gets little spoken thanks, but knows the spirit is passed on.
