Eagle Foot

To the Great and all powerfull forum: My committee chairman who currently serves a dual role with the Webelo's of a cub pack is bad monthing his Troop that he is Chairman over. He complains that the menues are poor...(insight) this is a new troop. The boys are learning. Meals are not very advanced yet due to cooking skills. Full rounded breakfast...boys already have found out this is really more work than they would like to do. Lunch is sandwiches..CC does not like this wants hot meal. Dinners are easy to not so easy...One patrol eats stake, baked potatoe, etc. (I'll eat with them any

We had a situation where we wanted to move the troop to a different "Chartering Organization"...question was "Could we keep the equipment or did it have to stay" I had heard all of the different "Policies" that everyone was quoting. When I went to national, it was explained to me as...If you move the troop the "Charting Organization" will have to do one of two things first. Either fill out the paper work to release the troop and its unit number or keep the troop (unit number)and the members can re-charter with another organization. In either case the the equipment bought via funds

The First Class cooking requirement can be a problem if it is left to the end of all of the requirements. I have found that it does support the patrol method because the others will have to assist with clean up, they all eat toghether, and have grace. The patrol members need to support the scout or scouts doing the cooking. It will be their turn and they will want cooporation also. If a scout cooks for at least himself and three others that's four...min. amount for a patrol. If the scout cooks for either his patrol members...pluss some of the adults I can't see why that would not keep him

The whistle is a good idea, in Boy Scouts we have taught that the use of a whistle usually means trouble or someone is lost. This is a signal with three....med blasts. I use it to assemble the troop. As far as yelling at the scouts...it has a time and a place...when no one is paying attention...usually not yelling just a loud "SIGNS UP" and that gets their attention. When we have a scout or scouts that are out of control there are warnings given. 1,2,3,up to 5 we use the chain of command rule, patrol leader, Patrol leader and Senior Patrol leader, Patrol leader, Senior Patrol leader and Assis
