  • Collecting Scouting Handbooks 1910 1911
    Collecting Scouting Handbooks The ISCA Getting Started Collecting Series If you are now or were ever a Scout, your first Scouting “collectible” was probably your Cub Scout or Boy Scout handbook. Since Scouting was founded in 1908 and then incorporated in the United States in 1910, there have been millions and millions of Scouting handbooks distributed. In this introductory article we will only talk about Handbooks for the Boy Scouts of America. However, if collecting printed materials from Scouting catches your interest, there are many different possibilities that a collector can consider, from both the United States and around the world. Since 1911, there have been eleven completely different editions of the Boy Scout Handbook. The following is a brief summary of each one. 1910 68,900 copies The 1910 Handbook, also referred to as the “Original Edition”, was not new material but rather a compilation of existing information from two other sources. Soon after the incorporation of the Boy Scouts of America in February 1910, there was a huge demand for a handbook that could be used to support the efforts of the early United States Scouts. Ernest Thompson Seton, the first Chief Scout of the BSA, offered to prepare a book that could be used until the first “real” handbook could be developed. He took material from Baden-Powell’s Scouting for Boys that had been published in England in 1908 and his own Birch Bark Roll used by the Woodcraft Indians, an earlier outdoor program youth group, and combined them to make the first Boy Scouts of America Official Handbook.

  • Commissioner Service, Our First Hundred Years
    COMMISSIONER SERVICE, OUR FIRST HUNDRED YEARS A research thesis submitted to the College College of Commissioner Science Longhorn Council In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Commissioner Science Degree By Paul N Dreiseszun 2010 INTRODUCTION As we approach the 100th anniversary of Scouting and the Commissioner Service, we need to look back and salute those Scouters that have worn the insignia of the Commissioner. Scouting has changed in those many years. Requirements and uniforms have changed. Council structures and boundaries have been altered. But the role of the Commissioner as Scouting's conduit for unit service remains unchanged. I have been honored to serve as a Unit Commissioner, Assistant District Commissioner, and District Commissioner. My experience is that it can be the most difficult position in Scouting. But it can also be one of the most rewarding jobs in Scouting. As we reach Scouting's centennial, the Commissioner position is getting renewed emphasis and exposure. Funding for non-profits is getting harder to come by resulting in less growth of the professional staffs. The need for more volunteer Commissioners is as great or greater than any time in the past Our role in Scouting will continue to be fundamentally important for the next 100 years. As Commissioners, we must make sure that every unit is offering their boys exactly what is promised to them …, fun, excitement, adventure, and ultimately a quality experience. The Roots of Commissioner Service As Commissioners in the Boy Scouts of America, we are delegated authority and responsibility from the National Council through our "Commission" per the By Laws of the National Council.

L’Associazione mondiale delle guide, il WAGGGS, ha deciso di celebrare il centenario del E guidismo non nel 2009 ma nel 2010, a cento anni N dalla costituzione ufficiale dell’associazione bri- tannica delle Guide; l’evento si protrarrà fino al T 2011 anno in cui iniziò la diffusione del guidismo O nel mondo.

INTRODUCCION “Buda dijo: “Hay sólo una forma de sacar al odio del mundo, y es llevándose por el amor”. La oportunidad se encuentra ante nosotros en lugar del egoísmo y de la hostilidad podemos infundir buena voluntad y paz en el espíritu de la próxima generación”.1 “Dios no es un personaje de miras estrechas, como algunas personas parecen imaginar, sino un vasto Espíritu de Amor que pasa por alto las diferencias menores de forma, credo y denominación y que bendice a cada hombre que, de acuerdo a su entendimiento, realmente trata de hacer lo mejor para servirlo”.2 “Así como en el nacionalismo es la religión. El soporte de la forma propia de creencia es una cosa correcta y apropiada, pero se vuelve sectarismo de miras estrechas cuando no reconoce ni aprecia los buenos puntos de las otras denominaciones; si falla en mirar con una mirada amplia y comprensiva los esfuerzos de los otros para servir a Dios, falla en ayudar a construir el Reino de Dios sobre la tierra”.3 “En la historia occidental reciente se ha presentado una tendencia aberrante a imaginar que la vida humana es fundamental o naturalmente “secular, y que la religión ha sido un agregado extra, cosida aquí y allá a lo naturalmente humano.
