Cub Masters Minute: Resourcefulness

Cub Scouts today have many resources available to them. Parents, leaders, and books are all important, but even more so are the resources you develop inside yourselves. Learn all you can, have the courage to try new things without fear of failure, work hard, and do your best in everything, and you will live a successful life.
