• Since 1910, conservation has been an integral part of the program of the Boy Scouts of America, now Scouts BSA. Scouting has been a positive force in conservation and environmental efforts. Scouts have rendered distinguished public service by helping to conserve wildlife, energy, forests, soil, and water. Past generations of Scouts have been widely recognized for undertaking conservation Good Turn action projects in their local communities.

I am always amazed when I am out in the community and see our Scouts in action. Helping someone by either opening a door or picking something up that they dropped. People are normally grateful and say thank you to the Scout. I have seen Scouts stop everything to help someone who was in need of aid. The first thing out of a bystander’s mouth is “Oh, they must be a Boy Scout (we know them now as Scouts BSA)!” Teaching our younger Scouts how to help others every year of their scouting career will help them remember when they need to use it. “Be Prepared... the meaning of the motto is that a Scout must prepare himself by previous thinking out and practicing how to act on any accident or emergency so that he is never taken by surprise.” Lord Baden Powell
