Film Transcript / Subtitles

Sure, scouting rounds a guy out, but how? Scouting rounds a guy out by giving him opportunities to do things and it gives him experience so he doesn't have to rely on others to do things for him. I can do a lot of things that I couldn't do when I wasn't a scout. It helps him be a better citizen and helps him make new friends. I like the boy scouts because you get outside and you're not cooped up all the time. You go camping. I think scouting makes a boy be able to take care of himself under any condition. Scouting gives you opportunities to do things on your own and with your friends. Well, I think scouting not only teaches you the things you need to know when scouts, but it helps you in whatever field you choose to go into. It's a pretty good deal. How does scouting round a guy out? In as many ways as it takes to build a man.
