Hey all

I know that some of you have sons in Scouts. I have just gotton elected SPL (Senior Patrol Leader) for my troop. I believe that I will do a good job, and I will try my hardest to. We have a VERY Boy led troop and I believe our troop will go through many changes within my term, I hope all of wich for the better.

Just thought I would report whats going on in my life

Congratulations. I am confident that you will be a skilled and visionary leader. I hope that you are blessed with some good followers, for such are rarer even than good leaders.

And remember the serenity prayer for the workplace:

Grant me the serenity to prioritize the things I cannot delegate,

The courage to say "no" when I need to,

And the wisdom to know when to go home.

Good luck, grasshopper.

Congrats! Make sure you pick good ASPLs (if the troop is big enough to need them) and your job will be so much the easier. Also, make sure to use your PLs wisely. Delegation (as you may have already seen) is alot easier than trying to get them all moving by yourself. crazy

Congratulations !!!

I second Samhain's thoughts. Do remember to take a deep breath at the proper time and they will follow.

Congratulations!

Just remember that the basic unit of Scouting is the patrol - not the troop. Healthy troops have healthy patrols.

Make it fun and they will come!

Also, don't forget to deligate jobs out to others.
