Eager Anticipation
Well, this morning Ben and I leave for summer camp at Heritage Reservation in Farmington, PA. The troop has 49 Scouts and seven adults attending this year. Summer camp is always my favorite week of the year, providing an opportunity to relax, forget about work and help the Scouts with swimming, Scoutcraft skills and other advancements.
The fellowship I enjoy with the other adult leaders means a lot too. Friendships made in Scouting are the most meaningful I have, as the other leaders and I share values and ideals.
Scouting is the best program around for young men. I had a phone call yesterday from the father of a former Scout who's now off at college. While we were talking, the dad told me of his son's values and how they were formed to a large degree in Scouting. He thanked me for my continued work with the troop. That made it a payday for me!
