Why Do We Have Campfires Fires?

Because

I hear and I forget.
I see and I remember.
I do and I understand.

At 12 years old (mol) a boy's world is made up of Earth Wind Air and Fire.
He will seldom consider that a fossil fueled central heated home with running water , hot water ontap and inside plumbing is a recent phenomenon and that at sometime in his life he may not have ready access to one.

At 12 years old a boy's world of food is that framed by his mother, a biog box super market and McDonalds's etc and that at sometine in his life he may have to observe ,track , hunt down, kill, clean and cook and eat his own food....

Scouting will save him some of that anxiety or pain of ignorance and with such skills he could really help others at all times, not just the good times....

Survival is too important to be left to well intentioned but inept organizations who can jet about to safety while others drown in the big picture.....

Support scouting because the life a scout saves might be yours....
