In the Scouting community, we honor, grieve and share the news of a long-time scouter in the tradition of Lord Baden Powell and Lady Olive Baden Powell by using the trail symbol for "gone home."  Baden Powell has the symbol on his grave, it is a gentle reminder of our humanity and humility.

When a scouter, who lived a long vibrant life, helped hundreds of Scouts and families, and earned the role of a leader in the community finally passes, we celebrate all the meaning and value they brought to each of us. In fact, in many ways, that's how Scouting remembers our heroes who have passed. We each live out the best qualities we gained from their generosity.

Please visit the donation page to give a gift in memory or in tribute for a cherished scouter. All donations go into the Council's endowment fund to ensure the Scouting program is funded in perpetuity.
