Use standard business-sized envelopes and address them this way:

Writer’s Name

Writer’s Street Address

Writer’s City, State, and Zip

Your Scoutmaster’s Name

Your Scoutmaster’s Street Address

Your Scoutmaster’s City, State, and Zip

CONFIDENTIAL

Re: Your Name

It is important that you write the word “Confidential” in the lower left corner of the envelope. It is also

important that you write “Re: (and insert your name).” If your troop has more than one Life Scout, your

Scoutmaster will not know whose letter is inside--your’s or someone else’s. Only your Board of Review

will open these letters.
