Exposure Goes a Long Way |
- Do you go to the market in uniform?
- Do you talk about Scouting activities at work?
- Do you ever have your boys participate in neighborhood activities
in uniform?
- Do you insist that your boys wear uniforms to school on your
meeting day?
- Do your boys do community service projects in uniform around your
charter organization?
If you answered no to any of these questions then you are missing out.
When the community sees us in uniform doing things that are positive, that
becomes an instant attraction. Believe it or not, parents want their boys
doing good things, the kinds of things we do! Wear your uniform proudly!
