"there is no testing and no enforcement of program standards unless somebody steps seriously out of line on something in a way that attracts public attention. "

Back in the 60's...our Neighborhood Commissioner (weren't called District Commissioner yet) would monitor the program quality. How did anyone know that your troop was running a scout program? Your unit Neighborhood Commissioner said so. A visit my him would entail:
- Inspection of facility using check sheet.
- Inspection of troops and adult leaders using uniform sheet
- Attendance check by patrol and he wanted to hear a patrol cheer.
- Inspection of troop records - membership, attend
