>>>I suspect that people have trouble using the book because they didn't
write
it. So by all means, put together and example of such a notebook and show
it to your scouts, but please don't take away from them the chance to learn
how to organize themself.

Sam,

Thanks for your reply. I'm all for, and consistently practice the ethic of
"hands on" for the boys. My problem is that the parents and boys have the
materials, don't read them, and don't help their boys organize, because it
takes "time".

I do have parents that work with their boys, and for those fortunates, the
parents and boys will do fine and will personalize their manual to fit their
wants. My concern is with the boys who don't get that help. Without an
organized base, many will flounder.

Dave
