  1. Another thought is that if I sign the card without trainning, you then I am a fraud and a liar.
  2. You make me proud to find someone else who teaches to the stature. I have said no to large 1-hour cpr classes. They always find someone else. There is no requirement for the merit badge for cards, but I will add it on the side if the scout would like. I cover the price of the card. But i do what someone who knows the correct answer, teaching the badge and hopefully an EMT or higher, to give some real-life encouragement. Basic skill was not the only part of an MB.
  3. It goes along with the cheapest way. All courses and training have been dumbed down, and the number of students has increased. It's just box-checking. OK, you attended.
  4. Please never fall for training instead of certification on anything. The one time something goes wrong, that card says that by my signing it, I currently have the training and certification to teach, evaluate, and certify you as trained and tested against a national standard. The cost for the card does vary, from $8 to $10 for AHA cards, Scouting, and ECSI, and the Red Cross has special rates for their classes. Remember, it's not just a check-off box if it goes wrong.
  5. I can not find a photo of the rocket, but looking at the rules and thrust allowed by motors, I see that these are not the standard balsa wood rockets we shot as kids. Still, it is a great achievement.
  6. https://www.scouting.org/health-and-safety/safety-moments/rocket-safety/ its not activity itself i did the same while in HS its the use of the egg as loosely stated payloads are not allowed plus them building their own launch pad may be not manufacturing approved. i could not find must else not really a big mater but we know at times the BSA can be picky at times again hats off to their award. i am surprised remember reading more based on suggest searches there may have need more.
  7. Sounds great wayto go but it looks like the it would not met scouting guide for rocketry. So not an approved scout activity
  8. You can only help the ones you can.For one to survive, help is that you can pray for rest and ask God to help you know the differencee
  9. I am in no way wanting to restrict landowners using good management practices, but it looks like one thing, do something else if there is money to be made, scouting = $$
  10. very impressive project. i would unfortunately have to say that scout involvement violates the scouting LNT principles as this sheds provide a mineral source for a lot of small animals so removing something that is part of natural process violates leave what you find and respect wildlife. but it does sound interesting money or principles. my 2 cents
  11. love to see more like that a very focus session on a field that is rare plus requires great skills and equipment that the scouts would not normally see. i would love see more state parks work with scouting to make good use of the rangers skill plus highlighting that whole profession (would aid youth and adults skills)
  12. maybe i read it wrong is this policy a secondary policy on top of the churches normal policies. not a lawyer
  13. the most interesting part is the council picks the number and who is in leadership not sure what causing long term injury or death to a cub is worth in todays dollar but 7.5 million looks big but to me is really small when faced with a wrongful injury suit.
  14. that adds to my statement The weather was a known event therefore it should have been planned for. waivers are nice what they do not protect you from stupid Acts.
