Yeah I don't want to put myself in a role where the initial reaction everyone has is that it's sketchy. I have done nothing to deserve that and I am not ok with being seen that way. If that's how people feel and I have to work to convince every single person I meet that I'm normal then I'm out

I was a Scout myself and volunteered as an ASM with my own home troop and with another troop after college. I was well liked as an ASM, helped the Scouts plan some ambitious outings and went on high adventure. I recently moved to a new state and want to continue working in this program, which has helped me build my leadership skills and given me a positive thing to put my energy toward. I contacted the council in my new home and met with the membership growth director, and he didn't say so directly but I could tell he suspected it was a little weird that I wanted to volunteer with scouts
