Boy Scouts is a great way for boys and young women to learn character and values in a fun setting. By using fun activities at the level (1st-5th grades) and camping & other activities at the Boy Scout level (6th-12th grades), youth learn self-confidence and self-reliance, citizenship, and mental & physical fitness. I've sat on dozens of Eagle Boards and have been very impressed by the leadership shown by the young men who made the effort to earn the highest rank in Scouting. I wish our local council were more Internet savvy, but overall, they comprise dedicated professionals and volunteers who serve to benefit the youth in our community.
