    Good point on the Family Life MB. Excellent list too. One that can closely follow these might be Scouting Heritage. So many scouts are exposed to good things in the scouting program and they don't "get it". I think Scouting Heritage bridges the gap.

    • @scoutmasterdave
      @scoutmasterdave 11 місяців тому

      The scouts enjoy the events as they are all team building type events that are common to scouting. Another district has run a similar event with different events yearly. In both events there has not been a significant opinion by the scouts either way.

    Only about 50% are trained? Are you referring to leader-specific training (which I thought was mandatory for recharter) or training like Wood Badge?

      Leader specific training is not mandatory. Your council might specifically mandate it, but Youth Protection is required by all.

    Very good info, realistic and well presented. I first camped with camp scouts in the Peloponnese , Greece (1974) and in a week will assist the leaders of 14 Cubs camping in a remote cove of Mykonos island (2022). Only difference, back then the rocks were good enough for my back ; now it needs a camp bed and inflatable pads. Stefanos

    I have always disliked the idea of a secret, exclusive group within Scouting, which is supposed to be inclusive. I attended Scout summer camp for four years. After the first year, I declined to attend the campfire at which boys were singled out for the OA ordeal. I wanted no part of a secret society. I stayed in Scouting long enough to become an Eagle Scout, then went on to other things. My achieving the rank of Eagle helped get me an appointment to a federal military academy and, by putting it on my resume, got me several good jobs later in life. Being an Eagle Scout caused people to recognize that I was an achiever. No one asked or cared whether I had been inducted into the OA.

  • @athos1029
    @athos1029 2 роки тому

    Do you teach skills like sharpening and oiling as part of tool maintenance? Is there ever a point where the scouts are allowed to carry fixed blade knives such as a Ka-bar or a Buck 119 or 120? And do you ever teach skills like knife or Axe throwing? I know it might seem like a liability in this day and age, but I'm going to tell you word for word what my Scout Master said to us when he taught us how to throw. "I know you idiots are going to try this anyway, so before somebody winds up bleeding line up I'm going to teach you how to properly and safely throw axes and knives."

    Hello! My troop and I are participating in the Klondike Derby this year and I was wondering if our sled was okay. We built our sled out of Trees we cut down and sawed to size, wooden pegs to keep things in place, and twine and rope to lash it all tougher. We used no metal nails or screws what so ever. Do you think our sled would be okay?

    • @scoutmasterdave
      @scoutmasterdave 2 роки тому

      A troop did something similar at our last pinewood derby, with all lashings. Make sure your lashings are tight, and be prepared to check and re-tighten them along the way. Also watch out for the weight, as it sounds as if it might be a bit heavy, so add additional ropes to pull it as needed.
