Changing the Course
The Quiet Adventure
"Once a Scout--
always a Scout"
Making A Difference
"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."
"Small deeds done are better than great deeds planned"
Challenge Me
"Training boy leaders to run their Troop is the Scoutmaster's most important job"
"Train Scouts to do a job, and then let them do it"
"Never do anything a boy can do"
"I have suggested Scouting as a good thing for Boys, because I began it myself when I was a Boy, and I know that if you want to enjoy life and get on, a great step towards it is to learn Scouting while you are young"
"A week of camp life is worth six months of theoretical teaching in the meeting room"
"Fun, fighting, and feeding! These are the three indispensable elements of the boy's world"
"There is no teaching to compare with example"
Quotes from Robert Baden-Powell
Boy Scouting's First Scoutmaster
The Road Less Traveled

"The Only Things We Keep
Permanently Are Those
We Give Away"

What is Scout Spirit?
"Your standing as a scout
does not depend so much on
the skills of your hands or
the badges on your merit badge
sash, as on the spirit in your heart,
on what you are willing to do
for others, on whether you are
doing your very best to live
the Scout Oath and Scout Law"
The Scout Law:
A Scout is Trustworthy
Loyal
Helpful
Friendly
Courteous
Kind
obedient
Cheerful
Thrifty
Brave
Clean
and Reverent
A Leader's Prayer

On Saturday, March 27, fourteen Webelos II Scouts from Pack 655 in Colchester were led by Order of the Arrow guides, in full Native American dress, across a symbolic bridge and into the world of Boy Scouting. There to receive these newest Scouts was a contingent of youth and adult leaders from our Troop who equipped the boys with indian arrowhead bolos, shoulder loops and Boy Scout handbooks, signifying their acceptance into Troop 658. We are honored that Jack, Thomas, Jordan, Zachary, Jimmy, Andrew, Colyn, Charlie, Mason, Ryan, Paul, Sawyer, Jacob, and Connor have chosen to become a part of our Troop and we extend our warmest welcome to the Scouts and their parents. It is with great anticipation that we look forward to sharing the adventure of Scouting with our newest members. Congratulations Scouts!
