Troop 658 Highlights

Boy Scout Oath:
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law,
To help other people at all times,
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake and morally straight.

	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 Robert Frost 1874-1963 "The Only Things We Keep Permanently Are Those We Give Away" "Achievement Consists of Doing Useful Things That Most People Say Cannot Be Done" Waite Phillips 1883-1964 Philmont Scout Ranch Philmont Hymn Scout Vesper 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
