  • Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a Proposal – December 2011
    Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a proposal – December 2011 Lord Baden-Powell & Duty to God God is not some narrow-minded personage, as some people would seem to imagine, but a vast Spirit of Love that overlooks the minor differences of form and creed and denomination and which blesses every [person] who really tries to do his [/her] best, according to his [/her] lights, in His service. in “Rovering to Success” Reverence to God, reverence for one’s neighbour and reverence for oneself as a servant of God, are the basis of every form of religion. in “Aids to Scoutmastership” Spirituality means guiding ones’ own canoe through the torrent of events and experiences of one’s own history and of that of [humankind]. To neglect to hike – that is, to travel adventurously – is to neglect a duty to God. God has given us individual bodies, minds and soul to be developed in a world full of beauties and wonders. in “The Scouter” January 1932 The aim in Nature study is to develop a realisation of God the Creator, and to infuse a sense of the beauty of Nature. in “Girl Guiding” Real Nature study means…knowing about everything that is not made by [humans], but is created by God. In all of this, it is the spirit that matters. Our Scout law and Promise, when we really put them into practice, take away all occasion for wars and strife among nations. The wonder to me of all wonders is how some teachers have neglected Nature study, this easy and unfailing means of education, and have struggled to impose Biblical instruction as the first step towards getting a restless, full-spirited boy to think of higher things.

  • Conducting a Successful Eagle Scout Court of Honor
    Bay-Lakes Council Boy Scouts of America Conducting a Successful Eagle Scout Court of Honor Every Scout that achieves the rank of Eagle deserves special recognition. Prepared by the Bay-Lakes Council Advancement Committee Revised for 2010 Conducting a Successful Eagle Scout Court of Honor Forward This booklet is published by the Bay-Lakes Council Advancement Committee to assist the troop committee in planning a recognition ceremony appropriate for the achievement of the rank of Eagle Scout. We frequently refer to “The Eagle Court of Honor” book by Mark Ray. It is not an official publication of the Boy Scouts of America. However, Mr. Ray is an Eagle Scout, and his book is compiled from contributions from many, many Scouters. An order form is included in the back of this publication and the book is available at the Council Scout Shops. There are a few areas that the book does not adequately cover. This publication will hopefully address them. Keep in Mind that the purpose of an Eagle Scout Court of Honor is first, to honor the Scout. If the Court of Honor is executed well, it will inspire other Scouts to follow the adventurous and rewarding Eagle Scout trail. A dignified and meaningful Court of Honor will also show the community the result of the Scouting program, so they will direct other boys into the Scouting programs and support the movement.

  • Webelos Leader Guide
    The BSA’s Commitment to Safety We want you to know that the safety of our youth, volunteers, staff, and employees is an important part of the Scouting experience. Youth develop traits of citizenship, character, fitness, and leadership during age-appropriate events when challenged to move beyond their normal comfort level and discover their abilities. This is appropriate when risks are identified and mitigated. The Scouting program, as contained in our handbooks and literature, integrates many safety features. However, no policy or procedure will replace the review and vigilance of trusted adults and leaders at the point of program execution. Commit yourself to creating a safe and healthy environment by: Knowing and executing the BSA program as contained in our publications Planning tours, activities, and events with vigilance using the tools provided Setting the example for safe behavior and equipment use during program Chief Scout Executive Engaging and educating all participants in discussions about hazards and risks Michael Surbaugh Reporting incidents in a timely manner Thank you for being part of Scouting and creating an exciting and safe experience for every participant. BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA SCOUTER CODE OF CONDUCT On my honor, I promise to do my best to comply with this Boy Scouts of America Scouter Code of Conduct while serving in my capacity as an adult leader: 1. I have completed or will complete my registration with the Boy Scouts of America, answering all questions truthfully and honestly. 2.

  • Wood Badge Staff Guide Is Structured to Represent the Experience of a Scout Unit Moving Through a Month of Meetings and Activities
    WOOD BADGE Leadership for Scouting—Leadership for America STAFF GUIDE THE SYLLABUS WOOD BADGE (This page intentionally left blank.) ii 2014 edition WOOD BADGE Wood Badge Foreword Welcome to Wood Badge, the ultimate leadership training program for the adult leaders of the Boy Scouts of America. Established in 1919 by Robert Baden-Powell, Scouting’s founder, Wood Badge has been the training ground for hundreds of thousands of Scouters around the world. As the challenges in the world have changed, Wood Badge has also evolved to give leaders the skills they need to strengthen Scouting in meaningful ways. The latest version of Wood Badge train- ing represents the most significant changes in the program since the early 1970s. Building on the past, understanding the present, and looking to the future, Wood Badge stands ready to provide leadership for Scouting and leadership for America. The Wood Badge course brings together leaders from all areas of Scouting—Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Varsity Scouting, Venturing—and all levels of Boy Scouts of America professional staff. Reflecting the best of nearly a century of Scouting experience, the course also draws upon the most current leadership models used by corporate America, academic circles, and successful outdoor leadership organizations throughout the country. This version of Wood Badge builds on all that has come before it. Veteran Wood Badge staff members will discover that the best of the traditions and experiences of Wood Badge have been brought forward and recast to be enjoyed by today’s participants. In addition, Wood Badge draws from a wide range of sources within and beyond the bounds of Scouting to present the latest in leadership theory and team development.

This Article advocates the employment of the twelve-point Scout Law of the Boy Scouts of America as a professional ethics guide for lawyers. The Article begins by briefly relating the history of virtue ethics as a philosophical field of study and comparing and contrasting it with rule- based ethics. The Article continues with a brief history of the Scout Law. Finally, the Article explores how each of the twelve points of the Scout Law identifies a virtue relevant to the practice of law and how seeking to adhere to these virtues is crucial for attorneys hoping to lead a life of professional excellence.

  • Book of Ceremonies
    Book of Ceremonies Girl Scouts – Diamonds of Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas 11311 Arcade Dr., Little Rock, AR 72212 800-632-6894 www.girlscoutsdiamonds.org Ceremonies A Girl Scout Tradition From the earliest times, women, men and children have held ceremonies to celebrate numerous events such as changes of seasons, births, victories, or deaths. In modern times, it is often our ceremonies and traditions that bind us together as a family or group. Ceremonies can bring meaning to life experiences and offer a means of self- expression. Girl Scouts also have ceremonies to mark special events throughout the year. Like other ceremonies, Girl Scout ceremonies can be planned on a grand scale to celebrate major transitions (such as awards, bridging, investitures, and end-of-year activities). Or they can be planned on a smaller scale to celebrate more frequent occurrences (such as the beginning or ending of a meeting, a campout, friendship, etc.). From the very beginning, Girl Scout ceremonies have been observed to reinforce values, pass on traditions and give life to the beliefs set down in the Promise and Law by highlighting accomplishments that illustrate a Girl Scout belief. Ceremonies also reinforce the Girl Scout heritage by reminding us of the contributions made by the women who nurtured the movement in its infancy and began so many of its traditions. These special rituals form a framework for today’s actions and provide inspiration for the future. The rich Girl Scout heritage of strong traditional values should be cherished and preserved. Many of the unique characteristics of our program are passed on from generation to generation-through beautiful and precious ceremonies.
