    • Hmm, nothing like adults meddling in scouts business. Merit badge requirements are between the scout and the counselor. Also, when adults start talking about shortcuts, they are mentoring shortcuts to the scouts. We must be careful that we don’t teach advancement over adventure. Sounds like a great campout. I’m jealous. Barry
    • There’s nothing stopping a scout from carrying his/her pack throughout the trip.
    • Remaining optimistic is a real long shot from what seems to be happening with this administration.  So, please do not hold your breath that he will actually agree to do it.  JMHO of course, but his track record is not rosy.  
    • Latest from FB: We received the following message from National this week: “Beginning this week, Scouting America Outfitters will start shipping Eagle credentials to local councils. The initial shipment will include 1,000 sets, and starting next week, they will increase to 3,000 sets per week. Based on this schedule, it will take just over four weeks to clear the current backlog. Please note that these credentials will not include the president’s signature at this time. While we remain optimistic that approval from the White House will be granted, we recognize that we can no longer delay distribution.”  
    • I am sure that there are councils that use training rather than certification; mine is not one of them.  I must have copies of the certification cards for all my staff, since NCAP Standards SQ-405 states what we can accept, depending on the time for EMS to get to our locations. SQ-405 also states the following under verification: Documentation of age (health officer must be at least 18 years of age) Description of camp program and camp health officer qualification requirements Statement from EMS provider as to response time OR Google Maps or Map Quest printout showing response time to nearest EMS Relevant certificates on file
