Locust Fork Leader

Thanks for the information. I have talked with the Cubmaster and told her what the parents said and I have talked to the COR.

scoutlder - Also meant to say I have also been a leader in the pack.

Scoutdr - Right now I''m a parent but I have been having to take a leader role. I am registered with Boy Scouts though.

I agree, but wasn''t there when they decided on this person, so I''m not sure what was told to her. I do know that there are parents that are getting mad at the increasing flip-flop of the committee meetings and no one calling to change it. I''m afraid the Pack will drop down to nothing before too long.

I have started over in the Cub Scout Pack where I live with my younger child. Everyone that was there when my older son has moved on (mostly to Boy Scouts). The new Cub Master that has taken over thinks she doesn''t have time to get trained. Excuses usually are work or something else. That said I''m afraid with this atitude that the other new leaders are going to follow suit. I''m hoping that the chaos goes away once we have a couple of meetings but I''m not so sure. This Cub Master thinks that she makes the decisions and everyone follow right behind her. Last night she was asked about

I just want to say that you''re doing great. At least you know the importance of having training and asking questions. Every boy deserves a trained leader. :-)

Thanks for the info! Ya''ll are great! ;-)

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that we could ride the metro so close to the park. I was worried about driving and parking. Now it just might be doable. :-) Thanks again!

WOW! Thanks for the suggestions. I'll get these to our boys and see what they can come up with.

t158sm - I'm sure that we could get the groups together and do a trip. Right now for sure we're going to Winter Blast at Camp Comer. Have you been to that?

where would you take scouts? I've never been and I've been looking at Greenbelt Park for camping. Thanks to the person who told me about it. Now, I need to hear some input from people who have been there and more importantly, those who've taken scouts there and what they really liked. Did you take tours or do our own tour? Where did you go? How did you get there? Did you hook up with a tour agent? Thanks!

Scouter & Mom - The boys have done the overnighter at the USS Alabama. A lot of times the boys do this when they are cubs. But I have wondered if they would be interested in another ship.

un2bnowl - Thanks for the tips. Those sound great. Just had a hard time thinking of something myself. I can't believe anyone could talk funnier than us! LOL!

Packsaddle, thank you for your information. I'm not sure that we're ready to travel out west yet. I think DC sounds great to me, but I'm not sure that the boys are going to go for it. Did your boys enjoy this trip? What are some highlights that might appeal to the boys that I'm not thinking of? I happen to be a nerd and think that going to the White House and Congress is just neat.

Have you used travel agents to take the boys to places out west or to DC? If you have, which have you used? Have you been pleased with them?
