Connections: Being a Boy Scout in 2017

Things got weird when President Trump spoke to the Boy Scouts. He veered into stories about friends making millions, buying yachts, and hosting wild parties. That put the organization into the awkward position of having to respond. In this hour, we discuss values: decorum, honor, and what it means to be a scout in 2017. Our guests:

  • Stephen Hoitt, scout executive and CEO of Seneca Waterways Council
  • Charles Brady, former scout and Scout leader
  • Joel Helfrich, local historian and former Eagle Scout
