How to Grow a Scout Leader

First plant seven rows of P's:
Promptness, perseverance, preparation, participation, presence, purity, and performance.

Next, plant three rows of squash:
squash unfairness, squash criticism, squash indifference

Then plant seven rows of lettuce:

1. Let us delegate responsibility

2. Let us give assistance whenever necessary

3. Let us recognize the importance of pooling ideas and encourage full and free ideas and encourage full and free discussion before decisions are made.

4. Let us appreciate and respect the attitudes of other people

5. Let us encourage cooperation

6. Let us arrive in advance of scheduled meetings, with all materials needed

7. Let *us* be prepared

No garden is complete without turnips:
Turn up for meetings
Turn up with enthusiasm
Turn up with new ideas
Turn up with a smile

The harvest is one terrific Scout Volunteer
