SCOUTING —Studies published both in the U.S. (2015) and the U.K. (2016) are now confirming what Scouters have sensed all along. Scouting has a measurable, positive impact in the character development of young people and children who participate in Scouting organizations are likely to have better mental health in middle age. Children demonstrate increased cheerfulness, helpfulness, trustworthiness, hopeful future expectation as well as religious reverence, while learning to be self-reliant. Join us for a future meeting the 1st, 3rd and 5th Friday of each month. For more information please contact us at: Kristine Kingsley-Mulder at: ktkingsley@hotmail.com; Dave Kerwick at: djkerwick@aol.com; or Helen Dallaris at: helen@dallaris.com
