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. Neal |

Thanks for all the posts, A son of a dear friend of mine (he was an Eagle Scout) committed suicide last September, the last time I saw him was at my son's Eagle ceremony as he was part of the Court of Honor. He went home that next day got a speeding ticket (one of many) in his WRX and put a gun to his head. I have a picture of him and my son on their way back from a 50-mile canoe trip that traced part of Lewis and Clarks route in Montana I can’t look at it without tearing up at just the sheer waste of a young life. Scounting/Parents/Genes can't always protect our kids from the pressures they endure these days. Sorry for the downer but this post just opens up a lot of memories.
