German Cubs

[badwater dan]

I was not quite sure where to plug this in so I put it here and in Cub Scouts.....

 

As a family we will be traveling to Germany this fall.

It is a rare opportunity to meet with Cub Scouts in Germany.

 

I have followed many links (including those on USSSP) and sent many emails without response (both in English and German) to some of the German groups. Out of this, I have been able to make contact with the Assistant Scout Executive with Transatlantic Council, BSA. He is in the process of hooking us up with some of the American groups in Germany to meet with during our vacation. Now I just need to make contact with a German unit.

 

Besides being a great opportunity to share the brotherhood of International Scouting, it is also a great way to fulfill a diversity WB ticket item.

 

If anyone has any info that would help point me in he right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Here are the areas we will be visiting:

 

Heilbronn

 

Heidelberg

 

Stuttgart

 

Bad Rappenau

 

Mosbach

 

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Not exactly sure of my German geography, but we have a den family who is being tranferred to Germany next week. They are Air Force, being assigned to "Ramstein" AFB (spelling?). Apparently there are 2 Troops and at least 1 Pack on-base. In fact, the following week, one of the Troops is apparently leaving for a week of Boy Scout Camp.

 

I'll make a couple of phone calls and see if I can get you any details. Maybe it will be of some help to you.

 

(The family is "moving in" with us tomorrow for a week or so until they fly out, so maybe I can get a little inside information for you :-)
