Walking the walk

[strider 10]

DF,

 

Nothing really to add except encouragement to do the right thing. I've come close to walking away and what keeps me here is like you I enjoy the program, but I also feel somewhat protective of the youth in the Troop that are still learning right from wrong. Just by sticking with it you are a positive example.

Remember, as a Scoutmaster, you are the public figure for the troop and a role model for the youth. Once, at summer camp, I was asked to help out the camp staff in reviewing medical forms. One thing they taught me was that we were not to challenge the signatures on the medical forms. I agree with that stance. However, as a unit Scouter, I sure would not condone that practice in my unit.
