Scouting America Chief Seattle Council

To prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the scout oath and law. Scout oath - on my honor I will do my best to do my duty to god and my country and to obey the scout law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. Scout law - a scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courtious, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. The scout law has 12 points. Each is a goal for every scout. A scout tries to live up to the law every day. It is not always easy to do, but a scout always tries.
