BACK INTO SCOUTING

Our boy scout troop in Ashfield had dwindled down to two scouts. We now have four or five new members and a few of us adult leaders are working to revitalize the troop.

Spent the last weekend in a training program to refresh my knowledge about being a scout leader. It was very gratifying to see that about thirty adults from rural Massachusetts were willing to spend a weekend learning how to help boys develop into useful young men. I was impressed with the friendliness, ability, and dedication of just about everyone there.
