Law And Promise

When people wish to join Beavers, Cubs or Scouts they go through a investiture ceremony. During the investiture they are expected to know the Law and Promise. They will be asked to repeat the Law and Promise, although their Leader can say each line which is then repeated back to them. There is a different Beaver Law and Promise, Cub Law and Promise and Scout Law and Promise.
