"On behalf of Boy Scout Troop 411, I just wanted to
thank you...Not only were the Scouts impressed with your presentation,
but the adults that were there learned a lot too. As you know,
we do a LOT of outdoor activities...All of your tips and ideas
were excellent tools for these outdoor trips...
Thank you again for a very informative evening. We look forward
to having you back again next year. We also hope that other
scouting organizations will take advantage of your services
too. It's well worth it!"
