  Speaker 2: We talk about all that all the time, a dealership
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: about leadership, and we had a meeting on Monday about
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Tuesday about the growth mindset and about how you have
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: to have your head right in order to not you know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: just be reactive in life. You have to being proactive
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: being a leader, being you know, having that mindset of
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: growth and trying to accomplish things, and Scouts really does
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: instill that in people, I think, and I mean it's
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: designed to They're designed to help you connect with people
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and other people that have the interests you have to send,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: to show you new things that you might become interested in,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: and to help you, you know, like you said, prepare
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: yourself for.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: Life exactly exactly you take those skills. We have over
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty four Merri badget Another good example
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: of that is this past weekend we had the Merri
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Badge Festival at Tri Counting Tech, so special thinking try
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: Counting Tech for supporting that, and we had over seventy
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: seven almost eighty plus youth that came Scouts that came
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: to work on Merit badges. And that Merribage system is
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: the one that you can end up having a career
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: just by being by being part of a Meyri badge.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: And so to become an Eagle Scout, you know you
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: have twenty four marribadge you.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: Have to do. But along the way, you never know
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: what Meri badge.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: It could be welding, it could be citizenship in the community,
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: it could be engineering. You never know what Mari Badge
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: could be sustainability that would then take that youth and
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: then go, you know what, this is what I want
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: to do for the rest.
• 5:43
  Speaker 5: Of my life.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: That's really cool, you know.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I you know, I remember when my kids were involved
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: in Scouting and we and those opportunities.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: They had to start learning things.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: And sometimes I think a lot of people listening out
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: there may just kind of have that it were experienced
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: with Scouts that come for a while and it kind
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: of passes through their lives and it's gone. But you know,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: it is something that's important, impacts our community and and
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: I think it can really build people's lives, right.
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's so much and Andre talking about about
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Merrit Badgers and and the work that Scouts are doing.
• 6:22

  Speaker 4: good for the pasture. And so, uh, this this is
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: the one that is our second annual one.
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: We did it last year. Now we're doing it again.
• 7:14

  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's awesome that it's a great place to remind
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: people what is involved in the derby.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: So so we we say that we teach physics in
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: the first grade, and so with the Pine with derby,
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: you know, our scouts have to start really early, so little.
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: At kindergarten, you have parents, dads, moms, parents, you know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: working with their little cup scout to build a power
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: derby and to see how fast it can go.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: And it's amazing what this journey.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: You see parents that get competitive, you said, kid that
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: get competitive. And every year you get a chance to
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: design your car and make it better and better, better, better,
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: that simple simple lesson of learning how to put a
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: little extra on the car, you know, take a little
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: bit moored off of it. You learn physic you learn,
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: you learn how to you know the difference between mass
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: of speed acceleration and how that affects the speed of
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: a car. And if you start those lessons early on,
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: like we're doing scouting in the first in kindergarten. By
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: the time our scouts go into seventh grade and eighth
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: grade and have to take real physics, that recall comes
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: in and they start to realize, oh my goodness, velocity
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: distance divided by time. I know how that works. And
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: so we start at the very early age teaching physics.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: The pino derby.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: That's cool and right again, that's at one o'clock on
• 9:00

• 10:59
  Speaker 2: to organize it? Oh, that's the wonderful thing about it.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: Right.

  Speaker 4: And when you drive up to the office. On the
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: side of the office you'll see the bins. They're all
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: well labeled and so you'll see this is for cardboard,
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: this is for plastic one this foot and you're plastics.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: You don't have to separate them. Okay, So just from
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: all in one location. We have two areas now just
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: for the plastics. We have another area for cardboard, and
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: then we have another area for paper, newspaper and wrapping paper.
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: And so it's really easy.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: You can come in within five or six minutes, you're
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: done and you're on by your day. And that's part
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: of the beauty of it, making it very easy. And

• 11:47
  Speaker 4: Cook who came to us about four years ago and said, hey, look,
• 11:50

• 11:54
  Speaker 4: started as a smaller project of literally just four bins,
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: and today we have five centers small satellite centers, plus
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: our big recycling hub right here at the Boycott office.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: Five touels have pop on and so the community now
• 12:10

  Speaker 4: before that, so that was amazing, amazing work. But the
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: entire community coming out to recycle with but want to
• 12:23

• 12:24
  Speaker 5: We want to say thank you.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: If you recycle with us, someone say thank you and
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: please continue to bring keep out of the light field.
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: That's right, I mean, that's really the that's right.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: A lot of people need to realize is if you
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: just throw it in the trash, it's going.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: Over on the hill right there.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: And there's plenty of stuff there already, and some start's
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: going to end up there.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: It's not that way.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Don't need a landfill, but as we can try to
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: prevent as much going there as possible, and if stuff
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: can be repurposed and reused.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: If you'd like the newspaper, and that's another big example
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: of something that could be reused, and it's helping the
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: sudn Akens.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: How do they use it?
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: So they use it for a lining for their for
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: their see them with their herds and all that, and
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: so it's a really wonderful process that they use. And
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: so being able to have I mean, we have folk
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: that come from No Water Pahusca that bring newspapers to
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: us and then we pick them up and then we
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: take it to them and sometimes they come and pick
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: up as well, and so it's it's a great relationship
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: and a great way to see something that can be
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: reused and repurposed.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: That's awesome.
• 13:24

  Speaker 6: and a half years now, and he's always been amazing
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: about working around my family being my priority. And I've
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: never missed a field trip or a parent teacher conference
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: or any of those things. And he's amazing.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: To work shop.
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, all the time. It's hard to say no to this.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: Fellow. That's awesome.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: And you know, remind us too a little bit about
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: your backstory and how did you end up here doing
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: what you're doing.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So so thank you for asking, right And I
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: want to say another petsiel thanks to our team. We
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: have a great team six just powerful uh volunteers. And
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: I was so I was an architect. I was in architecture,
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: and I was in Mississippi and at the time I
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: had just graduated, I was doing I was in my
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: second going on my third year architecture and my my
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: dream by the time was to just build out. We
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: were building homes, million dollar homes. At the time, and
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: just an amazing process that we're going through and.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Then fun thing to do to build things.
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: From the from the ground up. And uh.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden, uh, my boss at
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: the time came and said, look, uh, that paycheck we
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: gave you on Friday.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: You know it's gonna bounce. And so we started looking
• 15:41
  Speaker 5: for the jobs.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: And then I started interviewing, and uh, I interviewed.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: I had two wines.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: I was down to two final interviews, one with the
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: boy Scouts and another one with PEPSI, and PEPSI was
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: gonna offer me a full time job, car benefits, all
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: that kind of stuff. And then the boy Scout job
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: was that they were going to offer me one hundred
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: and fifty dollars a week and no benefits, nothing.
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: And so I called my parents, my.
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: Late mom and my dad, and I called and I said, hey, look,
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: I just want you to know I have these two
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: final offers and I want to do the responsible thing,
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: and I'm going to take.
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: The PEPSI job.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: And my dad was on the phone and he said, son,
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: don't call this house again until you have that boy
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: Scout job, and so I hung up. He hung up
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: on me and then I asked my mom. I said, Mom,
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: what's going on? And I did not know this at
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: the time, and I was a grown man. I was
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: a college graduate in every bet did not know the
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: whole backstory of scouting in our family. And so my
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: mom explained to me that my father was an orphan
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: at a very young age and he was in scouting
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: for three years.
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: He learned leadership discipline.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: But there was one married bage engineering and he said,
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: because of that engineering, Mary Badge, your father became an
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: hour and elkor engineer. And all of you, there are
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: four of us. Your sister's a doctor in California.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: Then it's you.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Then your other brother went to Louisiana Tech and he's
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: an engineer with Loreel. And then my youngest brother he
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: went to MIT, got his PhD from MIT and as
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: a professor with Tenant, Iowa State. And so my mom
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: failed me. In all these years, we haven't given back
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: to scouting. So, son, because of what scouting I've don't
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: find entire family. It's not your job to go give
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: back to scouting. And so with that phone call, and
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: that was May fourteenth of nineteen ninety nine, I went
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: into the boy Scout office and I said I will
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: accept that job.
• 17:42
  Speaker 5: Twenty seven years later, we're still here.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: And then I just love that story.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Then it's what you call it sparks at the viewership,
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: the sincere partnerships aligned resilient guys and superheroes, and but
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: it's really about that those things that kind of sneak
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: up on you and push you towards something and then
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: you're like a little further and the further, and it
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: starts to build momentum. And you were the impact you've
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: had in those twenty seven years. Imagine all the lives
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: you've touched, and thank you for the storytelling us the
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: story again and for your your impact on our community.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: And no, I think it's a it's a great, great
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: thing and people need to understand that how that works,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: and you know how the world you know is better
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: because of what you guys do. And thank you for
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: your sacrifice a little bit financial, but obviously it's rewarding.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: They would still be doing.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it very wan And and what happens is Scott
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: gets your chance to serve, to serve our community, and
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: so you know, service comes right back. And so we
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: learned that from Churchling, that from you know what what
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: we now faiths and we just want to say thank
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: you because it takes all of us. It takes all
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: of us going together and starting, like I said, with
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: a small little sacrifice, but at the same time just
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: giving back to our community, and our community gets right
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: back so much.
• 19:14

  Speaker 4: stack charts and being able to compare numbers, and so
• 19:36
