revoking a youth member
Basementdweller replied to Basementdweller's topic in Open Discussion - Program
We will suspend him and if it continues upon his return revoke his membership with our unit and inform council with the whys per the national website. End of story -
Watching the evening news..... Gotta Laugh here. So you have millionaire Tea Party congress men and women telling them to hold their pay checks till the shut down ends... Shaking my head......That is a whole lot different than the janitor making $20 an hour and no savings account.

Remind me again how many paid holidays they get a year? Or how about medical coverage after retirement? hmmmm

revoking a youth member
Basementdweller replied to Basementdweller's topic in Open Discussion - Program
Nope another of the Bad News Bear team.....Goooooo Team. Issue started with this young man 2 months ago....Maybe something at home, don't know. I felt like a ref at a MMA bout last night. Done with it. Smart phone attack, Mom, Scout, CC and Me. The reason for my question when I scheduled the meeting he said go ahead and throw me out I will just join another unit. With an attitude like that.......Well he just needs to have his membership revoked. -
Saw a cartoon the other day it had a minuteman and he had an elephant dressed and donkey both dressed in suits by the scruff of the neck and the caption was.....I have had enough of you two.

Eagle Coach - fact and fiction
Basementdweller replied to RememberSchiff's topic in Advancement Resources
Seriously that is a really stupid comment. How in the world is an eagle coach going to know that the Church is fighting with the city....... He will look at the project and see if it is something that will have enough hours, leadership and able to be done by the boy. thats it.... You understand that the project isn't really the goal.......It is nice and fluffy PR.....But is about the boy demonstrating leadership... -
Eagle Coach - fact and fiction
Basementdweller replied to RememberSchiff's topic in Advancement Resources
I find fault with ADULT LED Program and all that entails, Huge Expensive trips that clearly the boys didn't plan or show leadership in, Adult's who want a high speed low drag program Adult's mincing words regarding advancement Overbearing parents Merit badge clinics, Fair or universities. Woodbadge, Jim Jones used Flavor aid for a reason. Hides the taste of the poison. National Over billing events and failing to deliver on the hype, Seeing a trend here.......ADULTS. -
I have to Say CPAP, Followed By Power Converter I use a goodknight G420.....I can get a week at summer camp on a 12 volt 20 amphour battery...... Bought it just for camping. AC inverters are super ineffiecent Check this company out.....Dont know of anyone who has one yet....But when mine quits this is what it is getting replaced with. http://www.mytranscend.com/

What's all this obsession over knots?
Basementdweller replied to dedkad's topic in Open Discussion - Program
Knots are a symbol of an active program.....Most Camporees have knot tying contest. You actually had to tie knots to pitch a tent or tarp. The point is knots should be second nature by the time a lad is an eagle. -

My eyes aren't as good as they used to be.............posting on the small screen of a smart phone is tough........Auto correct works ok, but isn't perfect. Luv ya to bando..... -
Oh KDD, king if high speed low drag program, I forgot your group isn't even allowed to see college kids drinking beer on a river. We are the Bad News Bears of scouting......Think Chico's Bail Bonds. I am sure there are internet porn companys with sort of vanilla names.......
-
Sure the scoutmaster has some control... Don't go to summer camps with poor councilors and when the feedback form comes out let the Camp staff know how you feel........ Do not recommend councilors who are the giveme guys. I have a federal court judge who does the citizenship badges......While the summer camp offers it as well.......A pretty poor job of it I might add. who are my guys going to see????? Since becoming SM I have told all of them no Citizenships at summer camp.

He wasn't all that thrilled by it......He was OK when I told him the money wasn't coming directly from The casino......I will probably never hear back. Kinda like fishing.....ya never know till you try.
-
well I applied to the owner of the casino's foundation for enough funds for 7 tents. I also applied to a national retailers foundation for funds for 4 boy for summer camp.... The CC raised his eye brows when I told him what I was doin....... We will see..... It wasn't as hard as you made it sound....Filled the forms, a few fed numbers....Sent it in.

Well if you stupid enough to start a project before it has hall the proper approvals...................Well what can ya say, ya got what ya deserved. So what your saying is your SPL who has run the troop program for a number of months can't read the pamphlet and get it figured out.
