    • Ahh... you are not limited to attending events in your District.  You can go where ever convenience dictates. If anyone gives you the stink eye tell them you got permission from Scouter.com !! LOL
    • Appreciate the advice. The issue ties in to a council reorganization, adjusting district boundaries to balance volunteer resources. At times, there is an issue with being able to attend activities in other districts, due to size limitations of the chosen venue (camporees, klondike derbies).
    • Thank you all for the input.  We spoke with the camp and they will make sure that troops follow the proper procedure and that no one will have sole use over any portion of the facilities.  
    • Not that rare.  It happens. District boundaries are not a law or contract.  It's just to simplify grouping of units and to balance numbers.  If your unit fits better for one of many reasons in another district, work to advocate being in that district.  Get the unit assigned to that district.   Flexibility - Even if you can't get your unit reassigned to that district, you can still attend roundtable and often even events in the other district.  It's all about what works best.   For example, all your friends might attend in the other district.  Or the other district's roundtable or events conflict with standing troop date commitments.  Then, attending the other district might work better long term.  Challenges - If not formally assigned to the desired district, your paperwork goes to the other district.  Example, advancement and awards would go to the other district.   
    • I think I will keep my old uniform. Pants, hat, socks, and basic insignia ( world crest, ring, and WRONG (emphasis) council patch is $120. Can't get a shirt on the uniform builder.
