Snoopy, the Beagle Scout

[moxieman 11]

I have a huge patch blanket display I take to various scouting events. When I'm invited to a pack meeting, one of the things I'll do is point to one of my blankets and ask the scouts if they can find all NINE Snoopy patches.

 

That gets them searching among the 600 patches on that one blanket. When they succeed, I then say, so you're so good? Try and find the one GARFIELD patch.

 

Several of the leaders and parents start to chuckle as the scouts search for the orange cartoon cat, when in fact, I have a GARFIELD Community Strip at the top of the blanket.

I have a comic strip from 2001 on my office door that shows a line of presumably Scouts arm-in-arm like the Rockettes. One Scoutmaster saying to another, "I said, make these boys into a troop and put them in line, NOT a "troupe" and NOT THAT KIND OF LINE
