Well, since I aspire to be so much more of a know-it-all than I already am,
I think that a day/lesson/mention of the Boy Scouts would be in order in the
average pledging program. I am pretty sure that when I was pledgemaster,
one of the days on the syllabus acknowledged the founding date of the Boy
Scouts.
Anyway, I think I would like to know a little about Robert Baden Powell,
since he is sort of like the Frank Reed Horton of Scouting. . .right?
