Blake has Learned Knife Safety Skills!

Black SYI
Dear Rob, Ron, Alejandro, Leo, Lowry, Luke and Ani, Michael, Rachel, Tom, Ben, Paul, Cole, Kyle, Sung, Chris, Paul, Brian, Rachel, Esther, Manuel, and Steve,

Blake joined Soccer and Scouting almost a year ago with hopes of learning to play soccer and for the opportunity to go camping.  Since then, he has gone to every single meeting.  On a trip to the police station during the summer, Blake learned all about what police officers do, and decided he wanted to be one when he grew up.

Blake who is the second of two boys, is raised by his single mother.  Her job doesn’t pay well, and it is often a struggle just to put food on the table.  Blake heard about pocket knives one day, but because he didn’t have a book, he couldn’t earn his  knife carrying card.  Thanks to you, Blake has a Wolf handbook of his very own, and is able to partake in a year of Soccer and Scouting! His lessons learned in Boy Scouts will impart on him values to succeed!
