The Scout Law and Cybersafety/Cyberbullying Today we are online more than ever before. We use technology to save us time with research, connect with others, navigate, and have fun. Here are some ideas of how the digital world and the Scouting community can live side by side. Trustworthy. Be truthful with others online, and be very careful of the information you share. Do the right thing when sharing other people’s words or pictures. Make sure you have the owner’s permission before using them. Loyal. Share information about others only if you have their permission to share it. Uphold appropriate agreements you make with friends when you play games with them. Helpful. Alert others to scams, cheats, and suspicious sites. Point them to reliable and accurate sources of information. Encourage people to report bad behavior online. Friendly. Reach out to support others who are doing good things, like posting quality creative works. Support those who are bullied. Courteous. Be polite and respectful. When you use other people’s work, be sure to ask permission when necessary, follow fair use standards, and give credit to the people who created and own the work. Kind. Treat people with respect when you are on social networks, playing games, talking or texting on a cellphone, or in other digital activities. Obedient. When using digital devices, follow the rules set by your parents/guardians, teachers, and Scout leaders. Abide by the rules established by sites, services, devices, and games. Cheerful. Use games, messaging tools, and social forums to build your relationships with others while having fun. Thrifty. Be a smart consumer. Know your voice, text, and data plans and use them wisely. Be sure to study digital devices and services you want. Before buying them, make sure you’re not overspending on functions and features you won’t need. Be careful not to run up charges on apps and sites. Brave. Stand up for what is right. Do not participate in mocking and bullying others, even if your friends are doing it. Report suspected abuse to a trusted adult, like your parent or leader; call 911 or call the Cyber Tip line at 1-800-843-5678. If the incident involves any part of the Scouting program, call your council Scout executive immediately or email [email protected].

  • 2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information
    2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information (Patrol Leaders, Unit Leaders and station staff should read and know before the event. Be aware changes have been made since last year.) The Klondike Derby is a test of scout skills and of the patrol method. If your troop routinely practices traditional scout skills and is “scout-led”, you’ll find nothing unfamiliar with what is expected of you to score well. No matter your score, your participation in this event will help make you a better troop and will strengthen the bonds that make good patrols. Ideally, scouts will learn their strengths and weaknesses and have a fun weekend. We are very proud of all our participants. CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS YEARS: Senior patrols have been eliminated in favor of a rank handicapping system. In previous years, patrols of higher ranking scouts were segregated into a “senior” division. However, they still completed the same challenges as “regular” patrols at all stations, and typically only a very small number of patrols were identified as a senior patrol. This year all patrols will be handicapped based on the ranks of patrol members, which will level the playing field for all patrols. Details of the handicapping system are described in the scoring section below. Patrols should be “natural” patrols as much as possible; if natural patrols need to be merged to crew a Klondike sled, efforts should be made to average out ranks as much as possible. Troops must submit a patrol roster including each scout’s rank at registration, at which time the patrol’s handicap will be determined.

Camping and the outdoor adventure are at the core of the mission of Scouting. It is with this focus that the Arrowmen of Tonkawa Lodge 99 present this revised camping guide to the units of our council and any units who are looking to discover new opportunities for camping and exploration. This revision updates some of the changes that have occurred in Scouting, revises outdated information, and provides new locations for camping and outdoor adventures.

  • Scoutspeak 101 November 2020
    Washington Crossing Council Scout-Speak 101 A guide to help you understand the various terms, phrases, program components and acronyms that are used in the BSA program. Organization COUNCIL – A council is a voluntary association of citizens, including representatives of organizations that are chartered by the Boy Scouts of America, to promote the Scouting program within a geographic area. There are four major functions involved in achieving the purposes of a council: membership, fund development, program, and unit service. These four functions and all other responsibilities are accomplished in each council in a manner that is consistent with local conditions and circumstances. DISTRICT – Unlike councils, which establish policies and programs, districts carry out the programs and policies of the council in their respective territories. For the purpose of unit service, program administration, membership, and fund development, the council territory is divided geographically into several districts, as determined by the executive board. The supervision of Scouting in each district is exercised by the council through a district committee consisting of all council members residing within the district, chartered organization representatives, and district members at large. KEY 3 - The Council Key 3 consists of the Council President, Council Commissioner, and Scout Executive. They meet informally as necessary to ensure proper coordination of the work of the council. They furnish liaisons between the commissioner staff and the various committees of the council. They may also provide proposals and recommendations to, but in no way usurp the authority of, the executive board or executive committee of the board. November 20, 2020 Page 1 of 16 Council Support The thinking here is that Scouts and volunteers see only 20 percent of what councils provide to members.

  • Presents the 2Nd Annual
    Presents the 2nd Annual NCAC FACTS The National Capital Area Council (NCAC) was chartered to Congress in 1911 and today stands as the largest and oldest youth-serving organization in the greater Washington, DC area. The vision for the National Capital Area Council is to accomplish the mission of the BSA in such an exemplary manner as to be recognized by our public as the premier youth organization in the communities we serve and as second to none in all our endeavors. Through its character-based programs, hands-on activities and diverse learning opportunities, Scouting guides young people towards a healthy, lifelong pursuit of self-improvement and community involvement while instilling in them an appreciation of the environment. Corporate Mission and Vision: The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law. Scout Oath: On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. The Scout Law: A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. The National Capital Area Council provides programs to youth living in the District of Columbia and 16 counties in Maryland and Northern Virginia.
