I always had a ‘snack time’ ! It was one of the funniest times where we were able to just fool around and have fun at the end.

Why Can't Adults Trust the Scouts
ItsBrian replied to Eagle94-A1's topic in Open Discussion - Program
I don’t think he meant it that way, more as who runs it and makes most of the decisions. -
Agreed. I would put something like “You should listen in to your child’s den leader, you might learn something new too!”

Girl Scout sold cookies outside Medical Marijuana Dispensary

If I could thumbs down the article and what she is doing, I would. I personally don't think this should be allowed.- 66 replies

New YPT Launch
ItsBrian replied to walk in the woods's topic in Wood Badge and adult leader training
My question is... Why did I not have to take a specialized YPT or venturing YPT if I had worked at a CS Day Camp with female campers and staff? If they are already "mixing" boys and girls, why do they have to do something about it now? -
Have you told them?
-
I wouldn’t switch COs just because of that in my opinion. Have you tried talking to your COR? How about the town? The mayor?
-
Amazon smile isn’t worth it from what I’ve read. Anyway, it depends on your CO. Mine is a American Legion, which let’s us use their tax number. That’s how I got most of my Eagle Scout Project funded, corporate donations.

New YPT Launch

Venturing could be used for troops, then one can be made for packs? -
I found it on the scoutbook forums, maybe you should look there for other advice!
-
Many people in my troop are not fond of swimming, so I was just curious if they only had boating, fishing, etc.
-
I’ve been wondering for a while now, but kept forgetting to ask. Does Sea Base have anything beside snorkeling? I did a quick search and all I found in their website was padding in a canoe for 5 Miles that didn’t involve snorkeling I believe.
-
I also found one that many seemed to like, you can probably easily change it to be used as a Troop spreadsheet. https://www.dropbox.com/s/xauvw78j932bkax/!Finance_Spreadsheet 201x.xlsx?dl=0

https://www.scouting.org/programs/boy-scouts/program-planning-tools/ There are spreadsheets that can be edited for packs/troops for budgets. Hope it helps!

Why not just use the venturing one for all of of scouting? -
Why Can't Adults Trust the Scouts
ItsBrian replied to Eagle94-A1's topic in Open Discussion - Program
I don’t believe so. Every summer camp/camporee required class a at dining hall, ceremonies, etc. -
I don’t think some of them ever heard of venturing..
-
I’ve never heard of it, but I’m sure it’s still at some camps.
-
I think the terminology is tripping the whole forum up too!

Why Can't Adults Trust the Scouts
ItsBrian replied to Eagle94-A1's topic in Open Discussion - Program
Really? What about district camporees or summer camp? Or COHs? Same way for my troop. Class A to every meeting besides summer. (We meet in a basement with poor ventilation so it’s either freezing or boiling hot). -
That’s ridiculous.

I’m not saying that the Eagle Scout is right or anything, he shouldn’t be talking back first of all. Why do you require closed toe shoes? I understand for camping trips, hikes, events, etc. But if it’s just a simple meeting why do you need them?
