Harry Pinxt of DSM in the Netherlands enthusiastically describes his dream: "
Children are our future and their welfare is important for all of us. Happy
children will develop into happy adults who still dare to dream and make these
dreams come true. Many children in Elsloo in the south of the Netherlands see
some of their dreams fulfilled at their weekly scout meetings. Scouting
involves hiking, camping and building a campfire but also cooking, making
things and playing games.”
The scout troop’s building had to be improved to meet safety standards and
needed better facilities. The exterior had to be painted and the interior
redecorated.
