Re: BSA: boy run program (was Re: $ and Scouting)

Charlotte,

Most of the Troops I've worked with have gravitated towards a separate
mess for the adult leaders. It prevents you from being the victim of a
bad cooking experience. :) After all you shouldn't be punished, you've
hopefully already learned basic cooking skills. Second, it prevents
leaders from the urge to over-guide a patrol. Third, it allows boy
learning, including failure. Finally, the leaders in proper spirit can
put on some demonstration cooking to lure the Scouts on to better heights
(usually with enough left over to compensate a really bad disaster at a
patrol site).

In younger days when I was a Camp Commissioner, every meal for eight weeks
every summer for 8 summers was in a patrol site. It was the only time in
my life that I lost weight. :) You bet I had a secret stash - life as I
knew it depended on some extra goodies. :)

Speaking only for myself in the Scouting Spirit, Michael F Bowman
