Does anyone have a good plan to recruit den cheifs from your troop to work with webelos dens?

liner socks---hiking socks====prevent blisters!!! Jock itch is a problem too. Sun protection

Whe I stepped down as SM I joined the District Committee and am presently District Chairman. It's great because to help the units in the whole district with program, activities, membership, training, and funding. you hve a great crew if district volunteers to work with it's a great time.

ASM cannot be a CC or serve on the TC. A married SM/ASM cannot be the two deep leadership on a camp overnight outing or on any outing...youth protection.

Definition for Politics: abuse power.....Good Luck!!!

I never said anything about firing the CC. The CC was being arrogant and doing thing on his own without consulting with anyone....when it would directy affect his scout!! He was not appointed by the CO... Also, there were ASM's on the TC telling the SM what to do!!!! Te UC or COR could not find anything wrong with it....a SM was not needed in the Troop..........................

Been here before with the CC..... went to the UC and the COR and the President of the CO and they were worthless......I was a puppet on a string. The TC is suppose to support the Scouts and the SM. Not supporting the SM is undermining the whole Troop program. Who spends all their vounteer time with the Scouts....the SM!!! The SM should have the last say in the program. The SM knows what the Scouts want...a fun program!!!!

I have a new Eagle Scout in the troop and he is very close to being 18 years old. He has stated he does not plan to have a Eagle Court of Honor. Has anyone ever had this situation before? What is a SM to do?

Thank you everyone for your input. I am meeting with the DE tommorrow to see what is expected of my duty as chairman. To be able to chat with experienced scouters in this forum is priceless!!!!!

I'm a new District Chairman. What are the most critical District Committee roles?

I will ask our DE and SE their opinion. The replies I've been geting don't seem to make much sense.

Has anyone tried color safe bleach, soaking it overnight?

Is it legal to take BSA rules from the Guide to Safe Scouting and change the rules to what you want the troop to have and then have the Scout and parent sign the agreement? Who does the liability fall on then if it is not written verbatim? They also use the reference number of the publication from BSA on the agreement. If it is BSA policy, you don't have to sign any agreement to the rules, the Scout can have disiplinary action taken if he knows he has violated the Guide to Save Scouting rules, being warned by the adult leadership.
