A RESOLUTION recognizing February 8, 2006 as Scouting in New Hampshire Day.

Whereas, the Boy Scouts of America was founded on February 8, 1910 on the premise of teaching boys moral and ethical values through an outdoor program that challenges them and teaches them respect for nature, one another, and themselves; and

Whereas, scouting has always represented the best in community, leadership, and service; and

Whereas, thousands of New Hampshire’s young men have been positively influenced by the many lessons scouting has to offer; and

Whereas, scouting offers young people responsible fun and adventure; and

Whereas, scouting instills in young people lifetime values and develops in them ethical character as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law; and

Whereas, scouting trains young people in citizenship, service, and leadership; and

Whereas, scouting serves America’s communities and families with its quality, value-based program; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring

That the general court of New Hampshire hereby extends to the Boy Scouts of America the highest accolades and congratulations on 96 years of valuable service to New Hampshire communities and for instilling the qualities of leadership, service, civic responsibility, and values in the youth of New Hampshire; and
