Dean Lester's Boy Scouting Service

This picture is of me in my Scout uniform. 

 It was taken by a good friend many years ago before there were any gray hairs in my beard. Boy Scouting was important to my character development. As a boy I was fascinated by the outdoors. I couldn’t wait to be a Boy Scout. I had some great Scout leaders here in Brigham City. I became an Eagle Scout. I worked as staff for seven years at Camp Bartlett and Camp Loll. I am Wood Badge trained and was a Scout Master when my children were young. I am currently a Scout Committee Member. The principles of the Scout Oath and Law continue to be my moral compass. Jumping into the ice cold lake at Camp Loll is a bit like running for City Council, now I’ve jumped in it’s time to swim. On my honor I will do my best.
