I just wanted to see if there were any Boy Scouts on this BBS or had kids that are Scouts.
I have a 17 year old Eagle Scout. I never was a scout and I thought it was just BS but after being a Scout dad for 5 years I have a new found respect for the insitution.

I guess it all depends on the leadership of the troop, and the level of involvement and support of the parents, which makes it possible to have more fun and camaraderie - more camping, canoeing, hiking, and etc. I was lucky to be in a good troop.. we had guys of different religions, and nobody cared much about the religious stuff. I'll always remember the camping and singing and skits and stuff.. great fun! I still have them all written down.

Same as MikeZ, I got to about 15 merit badges, and then decided to focus on other stuff.. organizing activities, field trips, etc. And my first girlfriend was a distraction. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
