The archery accident at Summit in May still bothers me. Scouts who attend both, quickly see the differences and ask why.  That said, be safe and have fun. My $0.02, *Rules for scouting activities in Guide to Safe Scouting  - formal YP, no booze, med-forms, ...
    • We all knew this was coming right? The Church, then BSA, now the next biggest target? These vulture lawyers have a business model, they will continue to hop from target to target like locusts consuming as much as possible.
