Working
with the Townsend Conservation Commission, scouts and leaders from Townsend
Troop 10 rehabilitated a portion of a series of 3 trails within Meetinghouse
Park off Highland street, in Townsend. This included clearing and widening
trails, cutting and clearing blow down and construction of bridges. The
entrance section to one trail was cleared, weeded, covered with weed fabric
and then top coated with approximately 25 yards of wood chips. The 2010
section of trail that was addressed for the challenge also had all previously
installed markers removed and new standardized markers installed. |

As an American I will do my best to
Be clean in my outdoor manners
I will treat the outdoors as a
heritage.
I will take care of it for myself and others.
I will keep my trash and garbage out of lakes, streams, fields, woods, and
roadways.
Be careful with fire
I will prevent wildfire.
I will build my fires only where they are appropriate.
When I have finished using a fire, I will make sure it is cold out.
I will leave a clean fire ring, or remove all evidence of my fire.
Be considerate in the outdoors
I will treat public and private
property with respect.
I will use low-impact methods of hiking and camping.
Be conservation minded
I will learn how to practice good
conservation of soil, waters, forests, minerals, grasslands, wildlife, and
energy.
I will urge others to do the same.

A Hundred Years from Now
A
hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank
account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove. But the
world may be different, because I was Important in the life of a boy."
