  1. I couldn't speak to how well, but our town isn't very large, with only one middle school and one high school, so I'd say it's fairly likely they know each other, with the possible exception of the newer Scouts that would still be in elementary school. I'm unaware of any matters of ego regarding the adults that resulted in the present situation.
  2. I agree that this would be the best solution, but right now it's a non-starter with the other units, so my idea is hopefully an alternative that they'll find acceptable. Maybe they'd be open to it after spending some time in this arrangement, we'll see, but for now the answer is no.
  3. All elected positions of responsibility would be maintained, and the SM/SPL opening the meeting would rotate every so often, time frame TBD. A single common program would be settled on, I'm thinking that the longer things go, the easier it would be to have everyone on one program anyway. As far as any kind of an exit strategy once there are enough for each participating troop to be decidedly more self-sufficient and competitive with the larger troop, my attitude was that we would cross that bridge when we come to it, since it could definitely take a while to achieve. I would imagine th

The Scouts would all work together to form the program, just as they do within their own units now. Which patrol a new applicant would join is not something I've managed to fig
  5. Hi everyone, here's the situation. Our town has 4 troops. One troop is somewhat large, and the vast majority of new Scouts go there. The other three troops are very small, each with around 5 or 6 Scouts, and when crossover time comes it's considered fortunate if one or two Scouts sign on with one of the smaller troops and not with the larger one. There have been years recently when no Scouts have gone to a smaller troop. It's getting to the point where we're concerned about the larger troop finally cannibalizing the others and being the only game in town. The quality of each troop's program do
