      I don’t like it since I feel like it is a distraction. I assume “they” feel like it is “action”, when it really is just a district from the real work. Very disappointing.

      Coed Troops

      By mrjohns2 · Posted

      My experience with our boy and girl troops have lead me to not want us to go coed.   Numbers wise, our troop has flourished now at about 15, leak at 22 last year. The other troops in our district that have acted like a girl patrol are in the 3-7 range and not really growing.  We have a “brother troop” and do some joint activities. We meet at the same time and place, just different rooms. It works well.

      Coed Troops

      By rallybug · Posted

      From what we were told at (boys) Troop committee meeting last night, it will be girl patrols within a combined troop - our troop decided not to join the pilot program at this time as a) the feeder pack is about 4 years away from crossing over any girls, and b) there is a girls troop and boys troop under the same number already at the next (contiguous) city to ours, so it would make sense for them to have the opportunity to try it, especially as they have just lost their meeting place.

      Baby Steps of America.... I expect we were headed to coed all along.

      Name changes and minor program tweaks won't make a significant impact.  I'm seeing a complete collapse of scouting in my area.  Multiple Packs ending, others seeing limited growth.  Multiple Troops in my area are also near collapse.  Summer camps, camporees are losing attendees.  The answer from National... A name change?  I think the change is fine, but hopefully I hear about their plans to reverse the decline.
