A Scouting Quote by Dr. Hector P. Garcia

"As an immigrant to this country, it was Scouting that took me in and taught me about this wonderful country.  I learned about the flag, honor, and all the other virtues I still believe in and fight for. Scouting provides a boy with the opportunity to understand the America dream and the tools to reach for it.  I will never forget getting to wear the uniform and being part of something so great."
