“Do
Your Best” for YOUR Scouts: Get Trained
Would you want to be rescued by a Firefighter or Policeman
that had not been trained?! Or go into surgery with a Doctor without any
schooling?! Of course not!! The same goes for your Scouts! Give them the best
opportunity possible by getting trained. Every youth in your Pack, Troop, or
Crew deserves to have a leader who is trained. And guess what!? We have an
opportunity for you THIS weekend to become a trained leader! Can’t make it this
