    • And another one appears.  Now it is the AKC.  https://www.aol.com/news/american-kennel-clubs-pedophile-problem-140634396.html Again, it is not just BSA.  It is a societal problem, and the focus needs to be far broader.  But it will never be completely stopped, as that is not part of the human nature element.   "Still no excuse for the mistakes and actual abuse in BSA."  
    • Currently at about 42,000, so looking for 19-20% growth in a year is a pretty big goal.  
    • This concerns me about Scouts Canada, from the article above.   "The audacious goal for 2025 Scouts Canada's goal is to support 50,000 young people with unique opportunities they wouldn't find elsewhere through new programs that meet the local needs of underrecognized, newcomer, and mainstream communities."   50,000 youth members?

    • How about a good look at the "Journey to Excellence" worksheet and head towards at least a Bronze rating?  All those KPI can be ok, but wouldn't an advancement rep best report from their seat?  SM is not a committee and should stick to SM stuff while committee can dig deep into expenses, advancement, recruiting.  Pretty much the team while the SM is quarterback.
