Suggested Songs
Why start out with "I've Been Workin' on the Railroad" again? Because
it's lively, tuneful, popular, and runs by itself. But, maybe you'd like
to be known as a good song leader instead of just a good song leader.
Then choose songs appropriate to the occasion and the mood you want to
create. Here are a few suggestions from the Scout Songbook, No. 3224.
There are lots more there-but try the new as well as the old.

Ceremonial
Write a "program" of appropriate song titles on a 3" x 5" card for each
campfire or meeting where you will be responsible for the song leading.
Write big enough to see in dim light. See Leading
Songs for a few tips on using singing effectively.
