Dear Scouts and Parents,

 

While Saturday will be a joyous day when we officially start our near Scout year, it will also be a solemn remembrance of the terrible day in 2001 when many Americans lost their lives in a dreadful attack.  We have been tasked by the BSA to mark this day in some way especially to say thank you to our national heroes that include our police and firemen and men and women in uniform.

 

Many of our Scouts may be too young to know the events that surrounded that day.  The lesson should be that hate never conquers anything and that love conquers all.  That when we work to love those around us though difficult as it may be, we can make the world a better place.   

 

This coming Saturday we will ask our Cubs to make up cards and posters that say Thank You and take them to our local Fire Station down the street.  Also please let us know if you have a family member or friend who falls into a hero category, either employed by the Fire Department, Police Department or serving in the Armed Forces.  We will make some effort to recognize and acknowledge them.

 

Yours in Scouting,

 

 

J.R. Brockman
