Quality
Unit
|
|
Recently,
the National Council adapted new criteria
for quality unit. The new criterion
involves changes that are overall good
for the unit. One new area allows
the unit leader in conjunction with
the unit commissioner to create goals,
which would help the unit meet it’s
full potential. Another area includes
unit commissioner involvement. Unit
commissioners must be attentive to and
meet a minimum number of visits per
year. The new quality unit requirements
are to be fully implemented by the early
part of 2007. Commissioners, please
attend
commissioner training and get all the
details.

The
Boys’ Life Mascot, Pedro Says, Boys’ Life
is Great.
|
|
The
Value of Boys’ Life for your son is immeasurable;
Boys’ Life subscribers, learn to read better,
are more active in Scouting, advance faster
and more, and stay in Scouting longer. Other
family members read Boys’ Life and learn
about Scouting. Parents and older siblings
enjoy the Magazine.
Boys
Life publishes a version for Tiger Cubs
and Cub Scouts. This issue is specifically
for the younger age group 6-8. There is
another version for 8-10 year olds. The
third version is for boys 11 and older.
The articles are all age appropriate.
Scouts
are given the opportunity to buy a subscription
at $1 per issue, WOW!! You cannot beat the
bargain, get your subscription today.
