Scoutmaster Moment
Tomorrow is the start of a new school year. A fresh start with a new grade, new classes, new teachers, perhaps a new school and opportunities for new friends. Soon we will begin a new leadership term in the troop. New beginnings are always exciting, full of the possibilities of what can come and how we can shape that experience. Good luck to all of you returning to classrooms this week, I hope you have engaging teachers, have good friends, and learn many new things. In all the things in life that come and go, no one can take what you have learned from you.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.-Dr. Seuss
