"It's WEBELOS not WeBeLoS."

 

I'm not sure how this speaks to her point.

Speaks to her point?

 

I was pointing out the a 6 year WEBELOS den leader should know how to use the acronym correctly.

I think that this exchange speaks to the big general problem that we have as Scouters and the BSA has in general. Far too often we are so concerned with minutia to concentrate on the task at hand. I mean, here we are discussing whether young Ninja, writing through a proxy, should continue plowing through on his quest to become the youngest Eagle Scout in human history or whatever, and ALL OF A SUDDEN we are in a snit about how a Scouter chooses to capitalize "Webelos"?!

 

I really think that if we spent more time on working with the boys and our fellow Scouters on the task at hand, and less time in Pharasseic rules discussions, we'd have more success as an organization.(This message has been edited by sherminator505)
