Hooray! OK, now how do I update my Pack's info? -
Be a Scout site not working
CubMasterDan replied to CubMasterDan's topic in Open Discussion - Program
I tried 2 browsers, internet explorer and chrome. Neither one is especially locked down, neither one worked. I don't think the solution is to expect potential parents of cub scouts to use a specific "not locked down" browser. The site should work for everyone looking to be a Scout. -
I am starting my 3rd year as a Cubmaster for my local pack. We are fairly smallish, about 30 Scouts. I have really been working my tail off the last 3 weeks to try to get more Scouts to join. I have lost 11 Scouts since last year. And I have only gained 6 new Scouts this year. I was talking to my wife about ways to get the word out. And it occurred to me that maybe I should update my Pack's entry on the BSA website. (I know in the past these were called pins.) So I pretended as though I was a local parent interested in joining Scouts. An internet search leads me to beascout.s

I am the cubmaster of a pack with about 30 scouts. We set a date for our pack to go to the local council's resident cubscout pack in July. (3 days at the resident camp.) I have At least 5 leaders going along. As I understand it, the rules for our council are that one adult can supervise up to 4 scouts. So the 5 leaders could take up to 20 scouts. What I have been telling my pack is that if the scout will be a weebelo or arrow of light, they could go without their parents if their parents approve. If the scout will be a bear, wolf, or tiger, they must have their parent or guardian to go scoutin

Looking for help with Cub scout Family Camping Trip
CubMasterDan replied to CubMasterDan's topic in Cub Scouts
Thanks for the help everyone. I met with the most interested paresnts yesterday and everyone agreed. We will have some activities, but we aren't going to try to be too regimented. I think everyone understands this is a learning experience for all of us. -
Ok, I realized that this is very long. Here is the short version: I am taking my Cub Scout Pack camping for the first time. What advice do you have? Long Version: I am a new Cubmaster this year. I have been in this Pack for five years. I have 4 sons. My oldest is just starting Boy Scouts. I have a Bear and a Tiger, and I have a 4 year old. So I will be around for a long time. I started as Tiger Den Leader 2 years ago. This year I am acting as Tiger Leader, Bear Leader and Cubmaster. I have one other Tiger Leader and 2 other Bear Leaders, so I am not having to do it all on my own. O
