Scouting Hot Finds Radio #82: Doing A Good Turn With Andrew Silverstone
Andrew Silverstone could teach us all a thing or two about the Scout Oath and Law. When he heard that some Scouts had lost their patches at the 2017 National Scout Jamboree he sprang into action organizing rescue boxes.

He also shares why this was so meaningful for him as he was a victim of this mishap himself back at the 1985 Jamboree.
