“Scouting provides youth with an opportunity to try new things, provide service to others, build self-confidence, and reinforce ethical standards. These opportunities not only help them when they are young, but carry forward into their adult lives, improving their relationships, their work lives, their family lives, and the values by which they live.”

"My Scouting journey spans decades, and it has been an extraordinary experience. However, it all commenced with a single Scout leader who served as my inspiration, coupled with our remarkable program. This underscores the idea that Scouting is not merely an activity we engage in; it is an integral part of our identity. It shapes who we are and serves as the defining essence of ourselves.” 

“Scouts do many things. They build, they play with purpose, they make friends and work together. They set goals and clear them one by one. They go places—physically, mentally, and spiritually. These experiences—and the confidence they provide—are building blocks in the foundations of life. With these foundations Scouts are prepared to not just overcome obstacles, but to embrace opportunities. For the parents watching in awe, it is not a question of where their Scout will go, but if there is anywhere they can't go."
