The daring to innovate

The Best of the Leader Cut~Out
Pages
Opening:
God, I thank you for this
day,
In my work and in my play.
Help me to be very
kind and good
Help me to act, as your child
should.
Closing:
Hear us God, Beavers
bright
Keep us safe from morn 'til night
Guide us
in your own sweet way,
Bring us back another
day----Amen.

A Salute to the Boys
Sam
Houston Area Council
Here's to the membership,
Here's to
the boys,
Creators of havoc
And makers of noise.
They scream and they holler
And
batter our ears.
They run and they tumble
And they drive us to
tears.
But still, in the end,
They grow and
they learn.
They show off the skills
And the badges they
earn.
We guide them and teach
them
Because, in the end,
They're what it's all for--
We do
it for them.
