We are proud to salute the Boy Scouts of --- er. The Scouts of America, and the wonderful training ground for the youth of nations around the world. Our genial Boy Scout Command Leader, the Hon. Harry H. Jones, has arranged a program about the New Scouts and the changes since many of us were chomping grits by an outdoor fire pit. Yes, those great hikes, early morning (shiver) swims, and singing songs occasionally on key, bring back great memories. Yes, you may wear your scout uniform (if it still fits). Word of warning: bring some loose change or at least a single in the event that Harry is passing the hat for Scouting.
Invocator: Mr. Keith D. Vandercook
Introducer: Mr. Harry H. Jones
Be Prepared: "Be prepared! That's the boy scout's marching song. Be prepared! As through life you march along. Be prepared to hold your liquor pretty well [and] Don't write naughty words on walls if you cannot spell. Be prepared." Tom Lehrer
Paraprosdokian: I didn't say it was your fault. I said I was blaming you.
