Ever wondered why Scouts shake with their left hand? 🤝✨

This unique tradition dates back to our founder, Lord Baden-Powell. In 1907, he met a West African chief who offered his left hand: the hand that usually held his shield. To shake with the left meant dropping your protection, a powerful symbol of total trust and friendship.

Today, millions of Scouts around the world use this handshake as a reminder that we are one global family, closer to the heart and united by honor.

It's more than just a greeting; it’s a bond that spans generations and cultures.

Has your Scout mastered the handshake yet? Drop a ⚜️ in the comments!

🚨 Training Update 🚨

The final fixes are now live in Training Manager for Safeguarding Youth Training. Here’s what you need to know:

If you previously completed the old Youth Protection Training, you’ll be linked to the new 90-minute Safeguarding Youth Training to renew your status.

If you already completed the newer Safeguarding Youth Training, you’ll be linked to the 20-minute refresher course.

There’s a 30-day grace period to complete the refresher after your current training expires. After that, the full 90-minute course will be required for annual renewal.

✅ Make sure to check your training status soon so you stay up to date!

Scouting gives your kids a "happiness edge!" 🏔️✨

The 2026 Eagle Scout Study just dropped, and the results are incredible. It turns out that the skills learned on the trail lead directly to a more fulfilling life.

According to the research, Eagle Scouts are:
✅ 18% more likely to have a strong sense of purpose.
✅ 18% more likely to report higher levels of daily enjoyment.
✅ Significantly more hopeful about the future!

In a world that can feel a bit lonely, we provide a built-in community where young people belong to something bigger than themselves. Whether they’re mastering a new skill or helping a neighbor, our Scouts are building the character that leads to a lifetime of gratitude.

We see it every week right here in our neighborhoods: Scouts aren't just building fires; they're building the confidence to lead with a smile.

Ready to give your child the "Happiness Edge"? There’s a place for your family in one of our local packs or troops! Find a unit today at http://beascout.org
