CATCH THE WAVE!
It’s an event never before seen in Canadian history…and you will be a part of it! From March 7 – 13, 2010, Scouts Canada is celebrating our first ever National Good Turn Week, and we are totally pumped.
Like a wave across the nation, small acts of kindness from our youth everywhere will gather speed and momentum until they flood the airwaves and the hearts and minds of Canadians.
This is your chance to let the Canadian public know who we are and what we stand for. You believe, like we believe, that Scouting is the best youth organization ever. We are the finest ambassadors in the world for helping others; this is our chance to prove it. This project, your project, will have a powerful impact on Canadians from coast to coast to coast.
Whether you’re a Beaver, Cub, Scout, Venturer, Rover or leader…do your Good Turn, whatever it may be, and pass on your wristband. That person can do a Good Turn for someone else. Before we know it, hundreds of thousands of Good Turns will turn this nation into a kinder place, and they’ll all remember who started it: Scouts!
Don’t stop there…use your imagination to come up with good turns that are uniquely you. Think about approaching your local officials…mayors, local news personalities, etc. – they love projects like this, they love Scouts, and they’d love to wear their bracelets on the air!
