skeptic 1002 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 So, now that we have the head of AT&T as president, does that mean all our scout camps will get net access for their volunteer leaders and to run the STEM programs? They can mount equipment at the tops of the climbing towers in many, or simply a large tree. Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh 3452 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 All of the camps in our area already have Wifi. The one camp has had it for 3-4 years now. I guess the best we can hope for is a discount on the pricing. Link to post Share on other sites
desertrat77 1144 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I hope our new president can influence the IT situation at National. Irving's IT department is in dire need of direction. Someone needs to guide them into 2016. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Someone needs to guide them into 2016. Someone needs to guide APay&Pay into 2016. Mobile is OK, but home internet is the worst, I kicked them out a few months ago. Link to post Share on other sites

We will no longer have membership declines but "membership churn". Expect lots of tricks such as Early Scout Termination Fees, 2 year contracts, MB Caps and camping overage fees. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of Councils and Districts, we'll have cell towers with really crappy coverage and frequent communication outages... oh, wait... not much of a change. Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh 3452 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Will he ban all electronic devices at the Board Meetings? Actually, if the truth be known, his expertise will do wonders for the S.T.E.M. program. Link to post Share on other sites
