OPENING PROGRAM

To our Public Schools District Supervisor, Dr. Alma R. Pontaoe, to our ever-dynamic and
supportive school principal and Institutional Chairman, Sir Frederick V. Agayo , to the
enthusiastic and cheerful school head of Bakit-Bakit Elementary School Sir Ronelo Manganaan,
to the Barangay officials who are present, to my dedicated fellow teachers-scouters and
trainers, to our BSP and KAB Participants from San Pedro East and Bakit-Bakit, supportive
parents, Isang Magandang Morning po sa ating lahat!!!
According to Nelson Mandela, “Scouting inspires patriotism, sound moral values,
courage, character building, self-reliance and community awareness.” Today, these values are
just as relevant in helping youth grow to their full potential. Scouting helps youth
develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that
influence their adult lives. They are able to develop these values and skills while they also enjoy
outdoor activities that will surely make their inner-child heart happy.
And so to begin with our Program let us all witness the entrance of Scouts, Coordinators,
Barangay Officials and Guests to be followed by the Parade of Colors
At this point, may I request everybody to please pause for a moment of silence for the opening
prayer through a voice over presentation and after which is the Salute to the Flag.
And now, for the Pledge of Allegiance may I call in Scouter King Omar B. Saribay to do the
honors .
To formally welcome everyone, May I now call in the SPEES KAB Leader -Scouter Nory C.

a. INTRODUCTION:
And NOW, the long wait is over.. lets all witness “THE INVESTITURE CEREMONY”
It was in 1906 when Lord Stephenson Smith Baden Powell initiated the scouting movement to
foster and develop independence, discipline and love of nature to young boys. Since then,
scouting made a great impact to young boys. This very day, we are celebrating a memorable
moment in a boy’s life: to be welcomed into the boy scouts organization. Hence, we now have
the BSP and KAB Investiture Ceremony.

 CANDLE LIGHTING
We are gathered here to welcome to the scouting movement the new members of the troop.
To start with, the principal candle will be lighted….To do the honors, may I request Sctr.
Frederick V. Agayo, our institutional head
 THE SCOUT OATH
Scouts all over the world live by a code – the scout oath. This scout oath describes the three
duties that every scout embrace the moment he becomes a scout. We will now light the three
candles that represent these three duties. May I request then Sctr. Mary Claire C. Diamante,
Sctr. Nory C. Almazan and Sctr. Wennifred C. Bayaua to do the honors.
His DUTY TO GOD (Sctr. Claire lights the candle) We, who belong to the scout movement
believe in God. We may not all worship Him in the same way, but we are one in our faith that
He alone, reigns supreme, Our Lord and Master.
His DUTY TO OTHER PEOPLE(Sctr. Norys lights the candle) Our country, the
Philippines deserves our full love and dedication. The pages of our history are brightened by the
outstanding deeds of self-sacrifice and love of our country of great men like Jose Rizal, Marcelo
del Pilar, Apolinario MAbini, Andres Bonifacio and others. We do out duty to our country by
being noble citizens, by following the laws of the land, by preserving its dignified traditions and
culture and by actively taking part in nation building.
His DUTY TO HIMSELF (Sctr. Wennifred lights the candle) It is our responsibility to develop
ourselves into productive young citizens. We should strive to discover our potentials and share
our talents to others.
DONNING OF NECKERCHIEF
The scout uniform identifies you as a member of the scouting movement, a worldwide
brotherhood of scouts existing in more than 136 countries. It also identifies you as persons of
character, ready to serve others. It symbolizes as well the ultimate unity of purpose and
preparedness for outdoor life, strongly reminding you to live in accordance with the scout
ideals. At this juncture, we call the parents/guardians to help us initiate our young boys to this
noble cause through the ceremonial donning of neckerchief to the boys and putting on of their
caps to their heads.
(please execute the proper hand salute before and after the clothing of neckerchief)
Voice over: With those neckerchief /caps we welcome you to the scouting movement. May you
always remain true to the ideals of scouting.
INVESTITURE OF BOYSCOUTS
(the candidates for investiture goes up the stage)
May we call Sctr. Wennifred C. Bayaua, for the presentation of the candidates for investiture.
Troop Leader (Sctr. Wennired.): (commands attention) Fellow scouts and scouters, here are the
55 candidates for investiture- 25 are KAB Scouts and 30 are Boy Scouts.
(to the boys) Boys, you have presented yourself before this troop and asked to be made scouts.
Is this your wish now?
Boy Scouts: Yes, mam
Troop Leader (Sctr. Che): In this ceremony, you will be received into this troop and into the
scouting brotherhood. Before you is the lighted candle that represents the spirit of
scouting. THE LAW OF THE TROOP IS THE SCOUT LAW. It is known and followed by millions of
scouts. By being here, you will learn and follow this law, too.
THE 12 POINTS OF SCOUTING (boyscouts will recite the laws one by one before lighting the
candle: voice over explanation of each law)
I bring life to the first point of scout law: A SCOUT IS TRUSTWORTHY. A scout tells the truth.
He keeps his promises. Honesty is a part of his code of conduct. People can always depend on
him.
I bring life to the 2 nd point of scout law: A SCOUT IS LOYAL. A SCOUT IS true to his family,
friends, scout leaders, school, nation and world community

I bring life to the 3 rd point of scout law: A SCOUT IS HELPFUL. A Scout is concerned about other
people. He willingly volunteers to help others without expecting payment or rewards.
I bring life to the 4 th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS FRIENDLY. A scout is a friend to all. He is
brother to all scouts. He seeks to understand others. He respects ideas and customs different
from his own.
I bring life to the 5th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS COURTEOUS. A scout is polite to everyone
regardless of age and position. He knows that good manners make it easier for people to get
long well together
I bring life to the 6th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS KIND. A scout understands there is
strength in being gentle. He treats others the way he wishes to be treated. He does not harm
nor kill creatures needlessly and strives to save and protect life at all cost.
I bring life to the 7th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS OBEDIENT. A SCOUT follows the rules of his
family, school and troop. He obeys the laws of his community and country. If he thinks these
laws are unfair, he tries to have them changed in an orderly manner rather than disobey them.
I bring life to the 8th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS CHEERFUL. A scout looks at the brighter
side of life. He cheerfully accomplishes tasks that come his way. He tries to make others happy.
I bring life to the 9th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS THRIFTY. A scout works his way to help
others. He saves for the future. He protects and conserves natural resources. He carefully uses
his time and property.
I bring life to the 10th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS BRAVE. A SCOUT can face danger even if
he is afraid. He has the courage to stand for what he believes is right even if others laugh at him
or threaten him.
I bring life to the 11th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS CLEAN. A scout keeps his body and mind
fit and clean. He helps keep his home and community in order.
I bring life to the 12 th point of scout law: A SCOUT IS REVERENT. A SCOUT is faithful in his
religious duties. He respects the beliefs of others.
Troop Leader (Sctr. Wennifred): YOU have heard the twelve points of the scout law. Do you
accept this law as a scout and do you promise to do your best and live by this law?
Boy scouts: Yes, ma’am.
The recitation of the scout promise and law to be led by  Sctr. Allison R. Bacungan for the KAB
