A Good Deed for the Boy Scouts

A back-to-basics appeal
When assigned, I briefly considered mentioning BSA’s legal troubles in recent years but decided not to do so directly. It’s best not to open a can of worms that dilutes this message: The Boy Scouts is all about helping boys. Period.

Its own materials say it best. The Scout law, oath, motto and slogan indicate what BSA is all about. New Boy Scouts are required to memorize these sayings; I assumed many ex-Scouts and Scout parents receiving this mailing would also know them.
