So next year in ord(:}r to secure your first choice of subject, to prevent a lot of last minute planning and preparations, to facilitate the job of the Scrut Show Committee and to have an improved show why not select your Scout-0-Rama theme i_n September or October and then return your ap-plication for participation promptly after it is received so it will not get misplaced, lost or forgotten until too late. It is hoped that you will like the la;yout this year of having booths arranged by subjects and less duplication than previously. .A:n:y' and all constructive criticism or suggestions for improvement concerning this year's show will be gladly received by the 1958 scout Show Committee and passed on to the 1959 Scout-0-Rama Committee. The design for this year's patch has received much favorable comment. We hope this encouraged your boys to sell more tickets, thus making money for themselves, their Unit, and their Council 1 s catrq)s and also getting more people to come to the Show and learn more about· Scouting. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Wo 11p1aially would like to commend the Un:lt1 who tollow1d. dir1aUon1 and. r1q,u.1•h of th• committee in such matters a.s (l) Sending in your applio&tion fo:r p&:rt1oip&t1on ear]¥ - well before the deadline.

(3) Requesting eleotrio1ey, d.odrtd. 1i1t ot booth and other special. desires early in the planning stage :tor the 1how. The first information booklet and the applioation for your Unit! s participation were mailed out to each Unit in the fall~ ~his was done at that time on the assumption that your Unit was operating, as you were trained in your Scout Leader 1 s :Basic Training Course, on a twelve month program with all the highlights planned early in the fall. So next year in ord(:}r to secure your first choice of subject, to prevent a lot of last minute planning and preparations, to facilitate the job of the Scrut Show Committee and to have an improved show why not select your Scout-0-Rama theme i_n September or October and then return your ap-plication for participation promptly after it is received so it will not get misplaced, lost or forgotten until too late. It is hoped that you will like the la;yout this year of having booths arranged by subjects and less duplication than previously. .A:n:y' and all constructive criticism or suggestions for improvement concerning this year's show will be gladly received by the 1958 scout Show Committee and passed on to the 1959 Scout-0-Rama Committee. The design for this year's patch has received much favorable comment. this encouraged your boys to sell more tickets, thus making money for their Unit, and their Council 1 s catrq)s and also getting more people to Show and learn more about· Scouting.
