Once there was a Scoutmaster who had a troop at camp. The first evening he heard one of the patrols arguing. The Scoutmaster walked to the trees and gathered a bunch of sticks and tied them together with a half hitch to form a bundle. The Scoutmaster then asked each one of the Scouts to break the bundle of sticks. Using all their might, none could break the bundle. Then the Scoutmaster untied the bundle of sticks and asked the Scouts to break each stick separately. With ease they broke every stick. The wise Scoutmaster said to the patrol, “the sticks tied together showed you that there is strength in unity.” As Scouts, we have the strength of the Pack or the Troop to rely on, and we should all stick together.
