  • •BS 2003 AR Interior Final
    MESSAGE FROM THE LEADERSHIP The importance of “Doing a Good Turn Daily” is traced to the beginning of the Boy Scouts of America. In 1911, the first printing of the handbook stated, “So today there is a demand for a modern type of chivalry. It is for this reason that the Boy Scouts of America has come into being; for there is a need for service in these days, and that is represented by the good turn done to somebody everyday.” The pages of our 2003 Annual Report highlight Everyday Heroes who have made a difference in the world around them and have put Scouting’s “Good Turn” into practice. These heroes have saved the lives of others, have overcome insurmountable odds, and have found the courage and strength to do what few others dare. It comes as no surprise that Scouting is the common thread among these heroes. From Joshua Crane who saved his family from a house fire to Jeff Davis who earned the rank of Eagle Scout even though he has cerebral palsy and Jacquline Johnson who saved a man trapped in a burning truck, these are heroes that we can be proud of. Heroes that we can emulate. Heroes that have applied important skills they learned from Scouting. Heroes that follow Scouting’s value of “helping other people at all times.” We are keenly aware of the tremendous tradition that Scouting has in Kansas City. With the support of more than 19,785 adult leaders, donors, Executive Board members, and from the community and Chartered Organizations, we are confident that Scouting will continue to help young people become heroes.

  • The Scoutmaster Minute
    The Scoutmaster Minute At the heart of a Scoutmaster’s lifelong impact Cal Gabriel ASM Troop 476 Cupertino, CA [email protected] What if you had just one minute each week to talk to your son? What if there was only one minute where activity ceased and he stood before you, looking up and listening, waiting to hear what you had to say? One minute for you to guide him on his path; one minute to share your convictions; one minute to shape his life; one minute each week to teach him how to be a man. And what if not one son but a hundred sons stood before you for that weekly minute, silent and waiting for you to speak? What would you say, and how would you say it? 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 What is the Scoutmaster Minute? - A story with a purpose - Usually given at the end of a meeting or maybe a trek by the Scoutmaster or acting Scoutmaster - Takes about a minute - Your chance to plant a thought in the minds of your Scouts (and adults!) that will stick with them over their lifetimes—“instilling in them the values…” What can it do? - Inspire, challenge, instruct, maybe leave a lasting memory and alter a life…or a hundred - Steve Fossett: “There is nothing more significant in our development as young Scouts than the positive influence of a Scoutmaster who cares and inspires us to achieve.

We very much welcome the opportunity to participate in this story and look forward to seeing the final product. However, we do have several general concerns and some specific clarifications that we feel require your attention. For the past six months we have responded to multiple requests and inquiries you and your team have made regarding the BSA. In the past three months alone we have granted roughly 20 individual interviews, in writing and in person, at the local council and national council level and spent literally hundreds of hours preparing information in response to your investigation. Throughout this process, it has become clear that there have been a number of false assumptions made about BSA as well as some fundamental misunderstandings about the organization’s operations. As a result, it appears that some of those working on the story have come to unfair or, in some cases, wrong conclusions. In an effort to ensure accuracy in your final report, we want to take a moment to provide you the following points of clarification, on several key issues that we have repeatedly discussed.

  • 2006 Annual Report
    Foundations of Leadership 2006 Order of the Arrow Annual Report BROTHERHOOD CHEERFULNESS SERVICE Table of Contents Foundations of Leadership Brotherhood 2 Cheerfulness 5 Service 8 The Order’s Leadership 16 The year 2006 can best be described as a time of Brotherhood, Cheerfulness, and Service. Arrowmen around the country stepped up to the challenge to develop new programs, provide unparallel leadership, and give thousands of hours of cheerful service to Scouting and the nation alike. With this energy and spirit, we are proud to present the 2006 Order of the Arrow Annual Report. With nearly 176,000 members, the Order continued to deliver on its commitment to build on its foundation for the future. This report illustrates the hard work of thousands of Arrowmen delivering our High Adventure programs at Philmont, Charles L. Sommers Canoe Base, and the Florida Sea Base, our countless leadership develop- ment opportunities, and our relentless drive to provide service, not only to Scouting, but to our nation. And these only begin to tell the story. With the future clearly in sight, we have developed the National Conservation and Leadership Summit (NCLS) for the summer of 2007 and the ArrowCorps5 service project for the summer of 2008. Offering programs such as these combine our two greatest strengths - our love of the outdoors and our leadership. All of these activ- ities lead us to one place, a stronger Scouting organization. We invite you to go through the next few pages as we reflect on our past, but also look to the future, as we strengthen our commitment to Scouting through Brotherhood, Cheerfulness and Service.
