Summer Camp at Woodruff Scout Reservation
SM Minutes at Summer Camp
I had a couple of reminders for the boys. The first was about 2 young men that wanted to go out west and make their fortune. See the west was covered with coyotes and there was a bounty posted. So they hunted for several days and did not see a thing. Then late one night, one of the boys woke up and saw that they were surrounded by hundreds of snarling coyotes. He quitely shook his buddy awake and said.... "Get up we are RICH!!!". You see it is all about attitude. So have a good one.
The next was about a lazy eagle that only did what he had to do to get by. He saw a plump rabbit floating down a stream on a block of ice. He thought to himself, "easy kill". So he slowly swooped down and pounced on the rabbit. Instead of taking the rabbit back to the nest to share, he decided that he would eat it there on the ice. So he floated along for several minutes enjoying the rabbit. He looked up and saw there is a waterfall ahead but he was in no rush. Finally, he had waited until the last minute to leave only to realize that his talons had frozen to the ice. He plunged to his death over the falls because he was lazy. So don't wait, get your work done early.
That is all.
