The focus of these pages is Beavers, the junior section of Scouts Canada. |
One great point about the Knights of old was that every day they had to do a Good Turn to somebody, and that is one of our rules. When you get up in the morning, remember that you have to do a Good Turn for someone during the day. Tie a knot in your handkerchief or neckerchief to remind yourself to do it. If you should every find that you had forgotten to do your daily Good Turn, you must do two the next day. Remember that by your Promise you are on your honour to do it. But do not think that Scouts need do only one Good Turn a day. They must do one, but if they can do fifty, so much the better. A Good Turn need only be a very small one. It is a Good Turn even if it is only putting a coin in a charity-box at Tim Horton's, or helping someone who is lost, or making room on a seat for someone, or picking up garbage, or removing a bit of banana skin off the pavement. But one must be done every day, and it only counts when you do not accept any reward in return. Last updated: January 2, 2000 |
