Module on History of Scouting MODULES 35 Module on History of Scouting Introduction Hi! Welcome to this wrap-around module on the HISTORY OF SCOUTING. As you turn the pages of the book Forty Years and Beyond: Asia-Pacific Scouting Since 1956, where this module is wrapped around, you will be transported to a different time, you will visit places you probably haven’t dreamed of before, and you will meet personages you probably have only heard about. Wouldn’t it be fine if you had knowledge of some of them? This Self-Instructional Module (SIM) entitled HISTORY OF SCOUTING has been designed to make Scout Leaders, trainers, and those interested in Scouting aware of the history and development of World Scouting, with particular emphasis on the Asia-Pacific Region. The delivery mode is “self-instructional,” which means that you will teach yourself at your pleasure—any time, any place, unless your Course Instructor designates a specific time for it in a training course. It’s a wrap-around module, which means that the module is done together with a book or reading material, in this case, the book Forty Years and Beyond— Asia-Pacific Scouting. Don’t worry, it’s not like other history books where you have to read long texts—this one is pictorial. There are two lessons in this Module: Lesson 1: How it All Began Lesson 2: Scouting Takes Roots in the Asia-Pacific Region Lesson 3: Our Country Makes Scouting History Each lesson has these parts: 1.Introduction 2.Instructions on how to use the module and the book, thereby maximizing your learning; 3.Checkpoint, a self-assessment test to determine the degree of your mastery of each lesson; 4.Quick Check, which contains the Answer Key for the Checkpoint (test) or the criteria for evaluating end-products; 5.Challenge, which contains activities to do to show achievement; 6.Sum It Up, a synthesis at the end of the Module to summarize what you have learned. 36 The text incorporated in the Module was taken from this source: World Scout Bureau/Asia-Pacific Region (1997). Forty Years and Beyond: Asia-Pacific Scouting since 1956. Makati, Philippines: Author. Don’t worry about working on the module, because each lesson has been tailor-made to suit your needs. Just follow each lesson faithfully and you’ll do just fine! To give you direction on where to go before we continue on this journey, let’s first identify the objectives that you must attain at the end of this module. I’m sure you can achieve this after studying each lesson. Objectives At the end of this Module, you should be able to: 1. Relate the history of the Scout Movement 2.

  • BSA Religious Principles
    THE RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES OF THE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA SCOUTING IS YOUTH MINISTRY IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH The complex world of the 20th century, with its emphasis on instant answers and high technology, has had a devastating effect on our young people. Working mothers, single-parent families, and the difficulties of maintaining family life all add to the problem. The suicide rate among teenagers is the highest of any age group, and you will find drugs and alcohol prevalent even among preteens. It is no wonder that young people wander about in search of something to hang on to, someone to trust and in whom to confide. They have difficulty finding God, because there is no one to show them the way. How significant it is, therefore, that the latest revisions of the Boy Scout Handbook have restored the emphasis on duty to God in its pages. For, while the charter of the Boy Scouts of America has always had a religious principle, it was not always obvious to the individual youth in the unit. In recent years, as the Catholic Church developed its apostolate to youth more fully, it became known as youth ministry. Scouting is a significant part of this ministry. There is one particular aspect of Scouting that deserves special attention today, that is, Scouting has a tremendous potential for developing Christian leadership. Many of our youth today are struggling with an identity crisis and problems that growing up in these times often creates. Boys involved in the Scouting experience have a real advantage in coming to know themselves and attaining skills that will give direction to their lives.

    Boy Scouts of America Western Los Angeles County Council Western E‐ T rails Bringing You This Week in Scouting! Editor: Romy Longwell Western Los Angeles County Council August 16, 2006 16525 Sherman Way, #C‐8 Van Nuys, CA 91406 (818) 933‐0103 Rlongwell@bsa‐la.org Scouting Brings Cross­Cultural Youth Experiences to the San Fernando Valley By David I. Karp What is the likelihood of a summer day camp program in the San Fernando Valley with participants in the same place at the same time from such diverse groups as Spanish­speaking Hispanic youth and religiously observant Jewish youth? Such a cross­cultural youth experience actually occurred in the Eastern San Fernando Valley in July 2006. This marvel was a part of the local programming of the Western Los Angeles County Council of the Boy Scouts of America. This Scout Council produces six week long Cub Scout Day Camps throughout Northern and Western Los Angeles County. Each provides the opportunity for the youth of diverse religious, ethnic and cultural groups to come together. In July in the East Valley, boys attended Cub Scout Day Camp from both the religious Jewish community of Valley Village and from the Spanish speaking Hispanic community of Pacoima and surrounding areas. These boys might never have crossed paths but for the Scouting program that put them together. Their backgrounds and cultures are worlds apart, yet they have Scouting in com­ mon: The religious Jewish boys are affiliated with the traditional Cub Scouting program, adjusted to accommodate the religious practices of Orthodox Judaism. The Hispanic youth are members of a new national Soccer & Scouting program recently launched locally by the Scout Council.

  • FAQ—Religion
    FAQ—Religion What is the BSA’s current policy on religious belief? The BSA has adopted a Declaration of Religious Principle which is included in the BSA charter and bylaws. It states: “The Boy Scouts of America maintains that no member can grow into the best kind of citizen without recognizing an obligation to God... The Boy Scouts of America, therefore, recognizes the religious element in the training of the member, but it is absolutely nonsectarian in its attitude toward that religious training. Its policy is that the home and the organization or group with which the member is connected shall give definite attention to religious life.” Although the BSA states a nonsectarian approach to religion and is not based on any one religion, they also state that a Scout cannot fulfill their potential without “recognizing an obligation to God”. What about nontheists in Scouting? What is Scouts for Equality’s position on “A Scout is Reverent”? Reverence is a deeply-held, constantly evolving set of beliefs and ethics. For some, it is embodied by organized religion. For others, reverence is represented by a respect for others and the world around us. Reverence is as much about respect for one another’s beliefs—or lack thereof—as it is about a Scout’s own beliefs. The Boy Scouts have said as much in their own teaching about reverence. From the BSA’s charter and bylaws: “The activities of the members of the Boy Scouts of America shall be carried on under conditions which show respect to the convictions of others in matters of custom and religion, as required by the twelfth point of the Scout Law, reading, “Reverent.

(2012) Duty to God/Dharma/Allah/Waheguru: Diverse youthful religiosities and the politics and performance of informal worship, Social & Cultural Geography 13 (5): 481-499 This paper draws on a case study of the Scout Movement in the UK to explore the everyday, informal expressions of ‘worship’ by young people that occur outside of ‘designated’ religious spaces and the politics of these performances over time. In analysing the explicit geographies of how young people in UK scouting perform their ‘duty to God’ (or Dharma and so forth), it is argued that a more expanded concept of everyday and embodied worship is needed. This paper also attends to recent calls for more critical historical geographies of religion, drawing on archival data to examine the organisation’s relationship with religion over time and in doing so contributes new insights into the production of youthful religiosities and re-thinking their designated domains. Keywords: religion; youth; Britain; Scout Movement; worship; archival research Introduction Recent work on the geographies of religion has started to move ‘beyond the officially sacred’ (Kong 2005: 615) with a range of studies on the everyday geographies of religion ‘that lie beyond the church and chapel’ (Brace, Bailey and Harvey 2006: 38).

  • After School Scouting Program Summary
    After School Scouting Program Summary Elementary School Program The elementary program offered by the PA Dutch Council, BSA; Scoutreach Division is based on the Cub Scouting Program of the Boy Scouts of America. Since its origin, the program of the Boy Scouts of America has been an educational experience concerned with values. In 1910, the first Scouting activities were designed to build character, physical fitness, practical skills, and service. These elements were a part of the original Cub Scout program and continue to be part of Cub Scouting today. Just as character development should extend into every aspect of a boy's life, so character development should extend into every aspect of Cub Scouting. Cub Scout leaders should strive to use Cub Scouting's Core Values throughout all elements of the program—service projects, ceremonies, games, skits, songs, crafts, and all the other activities enjoyed at den and pack meetings. Cub Scouting's Core Values 1. Citizenship: Contributing service and showing responsibility to local, state, and national communities. 2. Compassion: Having consideration and concern for the well-being of others. 3. Cooperation: Working together with others toward a common goal. 4. Courage: Doing what is right regardless of its difficulty or the consequences. 5. Health and Fitness: Being personally committed to care for our minds and bodies. 6. Honesty: Telling the truth and being worthy of trust. 7. Perseverance: Sticking with something and not giving up, even if it is difficult. 8. Positive Attitude: Setting our minds to look for and find the best in all situations. 9. Resourcefulness: Using human and other resources to their fullest.
