[Scouter&mom 10]

Hi everyone,

I am new to this forum, but have been around scouting for a while. I grew up wanting to be a Boy Scout, cause they did cool stuff. My dad started a troop and was SM 50 years ago. My brother was active in the same troop years later. Even more years passed, and my daughter joined Girl Scouts. 10 years as a Girl and 2 as an adult for her. I had 2 years as leader and 6-7 as assistant. My son was in Cub Scouts for a couple of years with me as ADL, then lost interest at Webelos for a while. We ran into our SM at the mall and he invited my son back two years ago. Well as my daughter says "I have crossed to the dark side" and am now ASM. I think the real truth is the SM knew I always wanted to be a Boy Scout, so I am now in it for the duration. Have always camped and done things outside, so I really enjoy going along. I must be a glutton for punishment, cause I just agreed to take the Webelos, and help them move along towards Scouts. Oh, yeah, I also signed back up as AL for Brownies. Anyhow, I guess Scouting is in my blood and I guess I will do it as long as I can.
