Thought 4 the Week: On #WoodBadge & A Continued Commitment To Serve

 For this "Thought 4 the Week", A very dear friend and fellow Scouter was good enough to share this on Wood Badge.   Wood Badge was one of the highlights of my life--an Opportunity to serve and learn from some of the most selfless souls in the World who have dedicated their lives to serving the leaders of tomorrow.   

May all be ever so blessed to serve and strive to make a difference.....

Wood Badge

We who have lived in the woods together,
And have heard the kudu horn,
Have found within our hearts,
A spirit newly born.
We who have lived in the woods together
Beneath God's open sky,
Have found a truer meaning
In helping the other guy.
We who have lived in the woods together
In nature's great expanse,
Have found that nothing good in Scouting
Is ever left to chance.
We who have lived in the woods together
And have shared each other's task,
Have found a few more answers
to the thousand questions a boy can ask.
So as we gather for Scouting
And friendship once again,
We honor these beads you are wearing,
Welcome Wood Badge friend!
