Boy Scouts earning their Citizenship in the Community merit badge—always great to see young leaders in action! I enjoyed engaging with them at our council meeting and hearing their thoughtful perspectives. As a Scouting family, these conversations are especially meaningful to me.

Nothing like the goosebumps I get when this man challenges a room to strive for greatness. Great to be with fellow volunteers at the PATRON — KC Scouting’s premier fundraising event featuring Mitch Holthus, the legendary Voice of the Chiefs. hoac-bsa.org/patron-luncheon

Not forgotten. On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor our military heroes who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Here's my pic as we watched the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier -- Arlington National Cemetery.
