  1. For years I have been a MB counselor for 14 MB. Several of these, I was the only MC counselor in our council. I have often presented several badges with like requirement into learing sesions and camping trips so that at the end of several months of work the group would receive up to 3 badges. Yes my son did earn 5 MB from me along with other scouts in groups. He finished his boy scout advancement with over 50 MB.

    As long as you are willing to teach your skills to other scouts I see no reason you should exclude your own son. However I would have my son see other counselors when they were available.

  2. France and Germany have had an influt ot middle eastern immigrants - 40 million + mostly Muslum. These are not terriosts but they are very sympahetic to any Muslum country. The French and Germans do not want to offend their new neighbors. The other less important reason is the investment these countries have in the current middle eastern dictators.

  3. Welcome to you, a scout from the home of the founder of all scouting.

    I have been an advisor for a venturing crew for over a year now and each meeting I have less and less to say. The scouts find out that they like running the program. The president runs the meeting and delegates any work to other crew members. The better the crew runs the less the adults do. Young adults are ready to take over just show then the trail.

  5. I always encourage parents to sit in on merit badge sessions, but I do tell them not to coach their son or to answer any questions. The can make coments after the session is over. Part of the process of earning a MB is releating to new adults. Now he can prepair and know the subjet but he must be able to explain the requirements to the counselor and he must do everything that is required.

  9. If you are trying to track down your old Eagle Scout award and you don't have your certificate or card, first call the National council and try to speak with someone who knows about the Eagle Scout records. Next send in as much info. as you have. Any time you have more - send it in with letters from scouts who knew you were an Eagle. For OA try the camp where your lodge is located many have the names in the old buildings. Most other info will be gone. Good Luck.

  10. No - or yes? Venturing Crews can choose their own uniforms with a few restrictions. Now if the scouts voted on the BSA tan shirt with green loops and put it in their bylaws - OK. Now other crews may think you were - not with the program - rember Venturing Scouts are not older Boy Scouts. It is a BSA program, but the idea is to give more control to the scouts. I have never saw a Crew wearing the tan shirts with green loops.
