CLOSING
CEREMONY
A Boy
Simon Kenton Council
He is a person who is going to carry
on what you have started.
He is to sit right where you are
sitting, and attend, when you are gone, to those things you think are so
important.
You may adopt all the policies you
please, but how they will be carried out depends on him.
Even if you have leagues and
treaties, he will have to manage them.
He will assume control of our cities,
states and nation.
He is going to move in and take over
your churches, schools, universities, and nation.
All your work is going to be judged
and praised or condemned by him.
Your reputation and your future are
in his hands.
All your work is for him; and the
fate of the nation and of humanity lies in his hands.
It is well that we pay him some
attention.
Closing
Simon Kenton Council
I would give thanks for many things
On this Thanksgiving Day.
Thanks for all the blessings
Life brings each day along the way.
I would give thanks for life and health,
For home, for food, and you,
All that I count my greatest wealth -
Family and friendship true.
I give thanks for my native land,
For freedom on this day;
Where we worship and understand
Our privilege to pray.
I would give thanks for many things
And do the best I can,
To be worthy of all life brings
And serve my fellow man.
Closing
Simon Kenton Council
Cubmaster:
"We've heard of many famous men - men with curious minds, strong
purposes, courage, determination, stick-to-itiveness and a proud, fierce loyalty
for their country. For you as Cub
Scouts, America is still a land of expanding opportunity.
It could well be that someday, one of you will become a famous pioneer in
American history. Good luck with
your future. Good night."
