While it might seem inappropriate, I want to thank the parents and youth who were involved in this terrible tragedy. They presented an excellent example of what our youth can do when well-trained and confronted with a terrible situation. As an assistant Scoutmaster and Eagle Scout, my heart aches for those who are hurt or have died - but at the same time, it is filled with pride that young men were so capable and so prepared.
Thank You
