  1. Hi Can anyone give me any feed back on two Boy Scout Summer camps. Camp Emmerson Idyllwild, Ca Camp Chawanake Shaver Lake CA This is our first years as a Scout and would like to find out a little about the pros and cons of each. They each offer about the same merit badges but it is the other information i am interested in. How is the program ran How are the facilities ect...... Thank you
  2. Thank you very much that is perfect. i can print the instructions and the boys will understand faster Thank you
  3. I need the instructions for lashing a ladder. Our District is having a Camporee with the theme Scouts of the Round table. One activity is to Rescue the Damsel. we will need to lash a ladder and use it to cross the "river" and then to rescue the damsel from the tower
  4. I know this is way late but here it is anyway. i have been a den leader for 4 years and am now a leader of 5th grade Webelos. All my boys in all my dens have made rank by our FEBUARY Blue and Gold. My Father has been in Scouts since 1967 and agrees that in order not to lose boys they must have reconition. For some of these boys this is the only thing they achive in. I have had one boy who was in Special Ed and several who have ADHD and i have been able to keep them motivated by the pride in getting up in front of others to be acknowledged for having pasted another milestone. Sure you fin
  5. I guess that it is a CA program, each council sponsers different patches. 48 page reference pamphlet with detailed descriptions of Cub Scout and Webelos High Adventure awards Covers all awards sponsored by the Southern California Council High Adventure Teams This is from the Orange county CA scout shop web site. I heard about it from the Los Angeles county council But thank you anyway also one hour thank you for the images they are perfect!
  6. The Cub Scout Adventure is the equivlant of the Boy Scout High Adventure. From what i was told there is a patch for every achievment and/or belt loop. Thank you for the patrol help!! I will learn the ways of weblos :-)
  7. I am an experienced den lear of 3 years, weblos are very different then the younger boys. Our pack seperates the 1 and 2 year webols into two dens, each with their own patrol. Where do I find the different patrol emblems to choose from? Are they the same as the Troop boys? Also any information on Cub Scout Adventure Program would be cool.
  8. thank you very much for your help. Your ideas are very helpful!!
  9. Thank you very much, I never thought of themithe edge of the knife sharpening it. But you are right they sure will and it is safer too!!!
  10. My den is going to earn the Whittlin'Chip Badge on Thursday. Does anyone know of any easy pattern and the best type of sope to use?
  11. Our Pack Committee consists of any Officers "Treasurer" "Advancements" ect, all of the den leaders and the Pack leader. Also ANY adult parent who wishes to attend. We had an out line of what is discussed and we DO vote on items, approve the minutes and the finances. by the time we are finished discussing the issues we usually all agree and vote just to show it was agreed upon by everyone. This way NO ONE makes all the dicisions and NO ONE in the Pack can complain since everyone is invited. Usually it is the same one who show up to every meeting. Example We have a few new Weblos.
  12. I grew up as a Girl Scout, an Explorer Scout and even had alot to do with our "Brother Boy Scout Troup", that was my leaders husband's and my father's troop. Even with all of my experence as a Scout growing up, I have found that training is worth while. I am now a Cub Scout Den leader and this is my third year. I did not do the training for Tiger Cubs. Sure Tigers are easy but maybe it would have been better if I took at least Fast Start. I had do do the Fast start last year and found that even though I already knew the concept that I still learned alot. Most people do not feel that they
