Thoughts about your Gray Scarf with One Shield

The Scarf program is meant to challenge you to grow into the best person you can be in all areas of your life. All members of the Scarf Society progress through the colors by thoughtfully and prayerfully choosing to accept the challenge for which they are ready.

Requirements for the Gray Scarf with One Shield:
You may choose to accept the challenge of the Gray Scarf with One Shield if you already received the Gray Scarf and you are under 12 years of age.

The challenge of the Gray Scarf with One Shield
is to be a good citizen, helpful camper, and a true friend.

As you prepare to accept the challenge of the Gray Scarf with One Shield we would like you to think about some of the words to the following songs:
 


 
The Gray Scarf Anthem

    Let me be a little kinder,
        Let me be a little blinder
    To the faults of those around me.
        Let me praise a little more.
    Think a little more of others,
        And a little less of me.


 		 A True Friend

A true friend is a friend who shares
Whatever comes our way,
Who helps by thoughtful words and deeds
To brighten up our day,
Who knows the little heartaches
That lie heavy on the mind,
And tries to ease the hurt of each
By being extra kind.

 

 
Circle the words in these songs that help you understand the challenge of the Gray Scarf with One Shield.
 


 

Think about the following questions, and write down your ideas in the space below (or on the back of this page) so you don’t forget them for your talk with your Counselor and at the scheduled Scarf Discussion Meeting.
 

What have you done in the last year to show that you care for others and this beautiful world? (Gray Scarf challenge)

What can you do better this summer to be kinder and think a little more of others?

What does being a true friend mean to you?

Think of three things you can do at camp to become a better friend.

Think of three things you can do to make new friends.
