    I believe in giving our Scout youth repeated opportunities to engineer and orchestrate the construction of useful pioneering projects. Building pioneering projects contribute to the development of self-esteem and nurture a broad sense of accomplishment. They necessitate working hard and working together towards a common goal. Besides being really cool and impressing people in and out of Scouting, they require the mastery of a set of useful Scout skills that can be applied over a lifetime of outdoor activities�activities for both work and recreation.
  1. The troop with which I am presently affiliated regularly features an interpatrol competition after skills instruction. Here's a link to some of our favorites (all pioneering-related): http://scoutpioneering.com/favorite-troop-meeting-challenges/
  2. Patrols can compete in activities where each patrol experiences success. Here's one that illustrates everyone a winner: http://scoutpioneering.com/2013/05/09/scout-meeting-challenge-flagpole-race/
  3. Just wanted to report that Pioneering is alive and well and growing here in the Pee Dee Area Council, and I believe there should be a solid resurgence on a national level in the next few years. Here in SC we have a plentiful supply of pine (and bamboo too) and a really fine source for 600' x 1/4" pure manila! In and through the silly height restrictions imposed upon us, our pioneering programs are flourishing. A major part of Pioneering is bridge building, and there are plenty of opportunities to span short chasms and gullies with SIngle Lock, Single Trestle and Single A-Frame bridges.
