      When I google that, the only non-lawyer propoganda sites that say anything say that it's a legal action to compel the remaining 1 billion. Where are you getting 7 billion from?

      Youth Protection Question

      By PACAN · Posted

      How do units interpret this? Registered leaders must follow these guidelines with all Scouting youth outside of Scouting activities. There are careers that may require one-on-one contact with youth, however aside from those roles, volunteers must abide by the youth protection policies of Scouting America even outside of Scouting activities.   Scout leader hires a scout in his business as a trainee to install air conditioners.    Scout leader has to travel to job sites in his two seat work truck and takes the youth with him.  Opinion ?

      Where would you like to go?  For SBR it's fairly easy, just search for New River Whitewater Outfitters, you'll find several.  Instead of searching for Northern Tier, search for 'Boundary Waters'.  Replace 'Sea Base' with 'Scuba and Snorkeling adventures in...'. Philmont is both harder and easier.  There are so many great places in the US to hike and camp in the mountains that you'll have to think about the region first and then narrow it down from there.   If you want to stay in the desert southwest reach out to the Navajo, or the Hopi or the Cherokee and see if they have programs.  The addition of the cultural/historical element adds to the trip.

      I agree that they have their place, but it's actually easy to find another outfitter who will put together the same program, or a better one customized to exactly what you want, for the same or less. AND they won't kick you out at the last minute based on a measurement that the medical community consistently criticizes.
