“The best way to wrap up a meeting and make sure everyone know it is time to go is to close with the “Scoutmaster Minutes”. This is an opportunity for the Scoutmaster to address the troop and leave them with something to think about. It is usually a short story with a moral, a quote, or a thought.”

Positive Attitude
A few years ago, there was a wildlife organization out west that offered a bounty of $5,000 for captured wolves.
Two friends, Sam and Jed, decided to make their fortune. Day and night, they scoured the mountains and forests looking for their valuable prey.
Exhausted one night, after searching for many days with no luck, they fell asleep dreaming of their potential fortune.
Suddenly, Sam woke up a bit startled, and saw that they were surrounded by a huge pack of nearly 70 wolves with searing black eyes, and bared teeth. Low growls rumbling from their throats.
Sam slowly reached over and nudged his friend and said “Jed, wake up”
“I think we’re rich!!”
Sam had a positive attitude. I hope you do, too.
