A STORY FROM OUR AGENCY:
At the Boy Scouts of America, Cornhusker Council, we prepare young people to make ethical choices over their lifetime by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law.
Every day, we work to ensure that the boys and girls in our community have access to opportunities for the growth and development they need to positively impact their communities...
“I would like to make someone aware of the incredible job that one of your scouts does as an usher for the Husker games. Our seats are in Section 7 Row 25 and he stands near our seats every game.
Not only is he an incredibly helpful and upbeat guy, but he is acutely aware of the welfare of the people enjoying the game, throughout the game. A few games back, it was an awfully hot day and some of the fans were succumbing to the heat. This scout was notified that an elderly woman was feeling faint, or perhaps had fainted already. Having no radio to use, he sprinted full speed up the stairs to the top of our section and alerted the first aid workers standing there. He stuck with the problem in case he was needed, until the woman was eventually removed on a stretcher.
I really want him to be recognized. Thank you for all that your organization does!"
