Scouters are my friends. I love what we do and the people who help me do it.
A Scout is helpful and I enjoy helping others. We share common goals.
Time flies when I’m on a campout, at summer camp or just talking to other parents behind the scenes at a troop meeting.
I don’t like missing campouts or troop meetings if I’m sick or otherwise can’t make it. I like to be there to support the Scouts and the troop.
Scouting helps me “recharge” for the week ahead and gives me inspiration to do better outside of Scouting.
I enjoy helping others succeed and recognizing them for it.
I’ll do a bit more if it helps the boys.
Other Scouters and parents may sometimes be troublesome but they don’t bother me because I’m focused on the boys.
I look for ways that we can support the boys rather than finding ways to tell them “no”.
I always keep the main aim in mind – the aims of the movement – and realize that I make a difference, no matter how small.
Let us know in the comments if there are any more ways you enjoy Scouting, based on Derek’s list, my list or your own experience.
