You wonder how they will find their way. To get them ready for the times you won’t be there to help. How to help them to be strong enough, brave enough, mentally sharp, and moral. They need confidence without arrogance. Skills without screens, for the world beyond school and sports. Ready for emergencies, for challenges, for whatever the world throws their way. Prepared for what they have in their heads and hearts.
What can they do with their own two hands?
What can they do working with others?
They need to be social without the media. A way to experience the real world in real safety. A place to be challenged without being overwhelmed. A safe place to explore the world and imagine what’s possible for them in it.
Where all kids are welcome and everyone has a path forward to new skills, advancement, leadership, where their individual effort can create something invaluable. Something they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
Look for Scouting America (scouting.org) units at your kids’ back-to-school open house in August or contact them at info@cornhuskercouncil.org. You can join the adventure anytime!
