I also want to take a moment and thank all of our Varsity Coaches and Assistant Varsity coaches for everything you do. We appreciate what you are doing to build the young men in your teams.

The following quote really captures the importance of what we are doing.

“I think that American leadership is vital to peace and prosperity and the advancement of democracy in the world, and that requires having strong leaders. And I don’t think there’s any organization in the world, certainly not in the United States, that better prepares young men for leadership in this country than the Boy Scouts of America–in teaching leadership skills, in teaching values, in teaching importance of standing up for what’s right.”

Bob Gates, former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency

Thanks again for all you do, we look forward to seeing everyone at the Jamboral on September 27^th -28^th.
