Beginning to sound like a Seinfeld episode.

Not on purpose.  It seems to me that we have something similar in process in D.C.

Not a fan of the name "Family Scouting" ... it gives the impression that Mom and Dad can earn badges too. 🙂

What's saying they won't be .if SA can make money on it, it will happen.

Hard to pick a good term these days.  "Family scouting" implies helicopter parents subverting the program even more.  "Co-ed" scouting implies more societal change like the last twenty years. 

Terms ... I hope we can get beyond terms.  Scouting is really not about gender.  It's about getting outside, being active, being responsible and having adventures.  All of which lead to personal growth.  I pray we can focus on the basics of scouting someday.

We're going to get there. Now that this hurdle is cleared it's time to fix other things so we have more resources in place for program.
