MissingArrow 12 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I just got done writing an article about a Scout in Australia who is going to cycle across Australia to raise money for the Big Brothers Big Sisters Australia. Here is a quote about Scouting: Jack also credits his scouting background, Scouts really has trained me for the ride - training and doing a ride like this is about discipline, self reliance and perseverance. Helping others is also a huge part of Scouts and I hope to do that with the ride. I think this is amazing that this 15 year old put together this goal, talked his Dad into it, and is now using it to raise awareness and money for a charity group. You can learn more about his ride here: http://www.perthtoparadise.com.au/ -or- You can read the article I wrote here: http://www.scoutingnews.org/2008/02/12/15-year-old-scout-to-ride-across-australia/ Either way you should look into it and see what a great young man Jack is. It would be a great motivational topic for a Scoutmaster Conference or Training event. Keep it Real, Dan Link to post Share on other sites
