COMMISH CORNER
"The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service."
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
This time of year is packed with family, faith, hopes for the future, and charity to all. Service projects are a wonderful way to help those in need in our neighborhoods and in our schools. Share family, cultural or historic traditions with your den, pack, or troop. Celebrate the holiday season with foods and crafts that are appropriate to the various faiths and cultures. Build a giving tree during a pack or troop meeting or organize a food collection where everyone brings something to share with the needy. Service projects can take a number of different forms. You can help an elderly person decorate their home, go visit a long term care facility and sing carols or help serve the holiday meal or work with the local county departments to adopt a family for the holidays to name a few. As we embrace the scouting spirit and practice random acts of kindness, please remember to record the time spent working on them and report them on the Good Turn for America website.
Other Notes:
- Five Star University is January 12th, 2013. Visit the following Link for more information...It is great opportunity to get additional training as a commissioner!
"There is no teaching to compare with example." -Lord Baden-Powell |
