RE: How Boy Scouting came to America 🇺🇸
I am one of them! A couple of years ago I heard from a friend that a boy from the local troop didn't have an adult to go with him to the Father/Son camping trip, so I got to go with him as a "sponsor", and when I was there I talked with the troop about the benefits of staying with the Scouts, and my regrets about not doing so myself. I will check out his project now! Thanks!
Scouting is a great experience but relies heavily on the adults to support and encourage the boys. I regret not understanding the value of sticking it out and I my parents did not either. Thanks for making difference in a young boys life, hopefully he stuck it out.
