  4. I agree Why give an Award to a dead person.. Instead Name an award after him Honor him with a Display Name a Campsite or Fire Ring after him at a Local Camp Honor him with a Specific Campership to his Favorite Camp Carry on his legacy for many more generations, I think his family would be more Honored by that than a cheesy award that will be forgotten soon
  5. DeanRx wrote "" I don't really have anything against the beret as a fashion issue, per se... but I just don't like them from a functional standpoint. Really, what does a beret do? It gets wet when it rains and soaks your head. It provides nothing in the way of sunblock for your forhead, ears, or neck. They freeze your ears in cold weather. Maybe approach him to thing about function before suggesting the change. They look cool when worn correctly, but they offer very little in way of function or head protection.

  9. What a Shame that with all the Money being Spent on the Summit that they couldn't make arrangements for a Train Station there...After All This is a Lifetime investment with 10's of Thousands of People coming on a Regular Basis. I believe for awhile that it will be the "High Adventure Base" to attend for sure.. Philmont may be bigger put last I remember they don't have White Water Rafting..Ziplines..BMX Bike..A Huge Brige Suspended over a Valley. And for Most Scouter more Centrally Located. And Ain't the Summit in bidding for a World Jambo also? Now that would be an Experience..Trav
  10. Problem I see is that everyone thinks they have the best way to do things. My Perspective..I don't have enough Information especially the Where and the When and Also the How Long to give you proper Advice as to trek specific.. But... Problem with Troops buying Equipment..Less likely to be cared for..People want the Newest Gadgets..So older Stuff gets used less..You never have enough or to Much..This year you may have 60 boys in 5 years you may have 6. Newest items are always Expensive a few years later they are Cheaper than ever. While You May Envision the Troop forever hiking Endless

  15. Silly Little Question for You... Do you have a Local Council? Might wanna Check with them, they tend to have a List of MBCs..They just might have the Name of a Leather working MBC the troop don't know about
  16. - well that's really just showing off and not how the uniform was originally intended to look. And How Was that...As Far Back I can Remember Uniforms were designed to have Bling...We are Modeled after the Military except we did not have a Class A Uniform and a Class B uniform..We always wore patches and Such, We even have Medals. It has always been tradition "You Earned it, It is to Be Worn, Otherwise Your outta Uniform" Scouts were always expected to Wear Class A the Official Scout Uniform at all times..Only Until Recent Years did we Start officially allow wearing of Class B Unifor

  20. yea..why bother with rules when you can simply skirt them.. You know you can save money also simply by forming your own group and not pay membership dues and order a Magazine too
  21. Well DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhh.. I can see tethering them so They can be Controlled in Height and not free flowing but to simply let them go and float away is just idiotic in the first place
  22. When a TV goes out how Much Does it cost to Replace? You Will be Surprised how Much you Will Use one. And For What? I have Shown Movies at Den, Pack and Council Levels..anywhere from 10 to 1000+ People I have used it to Project onto Screens during Awards Ceremonies from a Live feed so people in Back Can see what is going on..You will surprised how much more People appreciate that when they get stuck way in the Back of the Room and Everyone stands up or just simply Block their Views by sitting..I have left awards Ceremonies where I was So far in the Back and could see Nothing.
