    Sometimes it seems there's little one can do to avoid recognition. Exactly one year after ensuring my mom finally earned the District Award of Merit, it seems this month I am going to receive the same.  And I haven't done a fraction of the good she did during her 30+ years of Scouting - so much catching up to do! 😵

      TLS, I was in the same position relative to the person who also was awarded the Venturing Leadership Award. I told him mine was more valuable because I did only a fraction of the work!

      Congratulations.

    Anyone notice that your neckerchief is just a backwards face mask?

      Full disclosure, I stick with the surgical masks. Having a large jaw, most pre-molded face masks don't give me enough coverage. The necker, folded into a cravat is about the right filtration (depends on the type of fibers and how/how often they've been washed), but tying it so that air flow is directed down and sideways can be tricky.

      My unit-leader necker from WSJ would have been perfect, but I gave it away.

    I am looking for a stencil of the BSA logo to use to paint on our new patrol boxes. I am thinking something in the range of 10" x 10". Any ideas, leads or places that this can be purchased without breaking the budget?

    A great-nephew called to proudly announce that he just got selected as ASPL of his troop!

      For Christmas I parted with part of my patch collection. These FL kids love Klondike derby patches! I also handed down my old ASPL patch.

    For those who can't wrap their head around my profile pic, Google "krampus" and read about the historical tradition of the character...and get over yourself. ;)

      My scouts brought it up on the drive home, and thanks to you, I had a useful info. I was amused at their reaction ... this lot is overdue for such visits.

      It looks like this is still the only way to post content of any depth. @scouterterry save us!

    Received the Silver Beaver Award at our Council Awards Reception the other night. The ceremony was ok but I really wish Council would have just mailed the thing to me. The thing that made the evening worthwhile was getting to spend time with some really great friends and my wonderful family. And I guess this is a good end to my scouting career.

      Congratulations ... and don't stop scouting. Just scout differently!
