@swilliams inspired me to start this thread so that scouters can learn about orienteering - the sport. For starters, check out https://orienteeringusa.org/ There’s an interactive map of clubs. Even if the nearest one is some distance from you, you may want to click through anyway to see if they’ve mapped permanent courses nearby. With one of these courses, your scouts can’t blame their navigation errors on your mapping skills! -
I don't remember who it was, but I sent an orienteering map I made to someone on this site. Always wanted to try it "for real". We do an orienteering event that I create every March, before the woods get too overgrown. This past March, one group got lost. They happily blamed my map-making skills, haha. -

Update 01/07/2025: The Court ruled that the proceeds from the sale, if it moves forward, can only be used as specified in the 1944 donor's deed when the Scouts were given the property: “for uses that support camping activities for Boy Scouts in Central Maine.” Council may not use proceeds to pay down debt or fund program services elsewhere in Maine. “Consequently, it would defy logic and nullify the law favoring charitable trusts to conclude that the (donor of the Camp Bomazeen property) intended to ‘reward’ Pine Tree with full title to Camp Bomazeen upon its absolute failure to follow his directions,” the justices wrote in their decision. "The state attorney general’s office sued the Pine Tree Council to block the sale of the camp, saying its plans to sell it and use the proceeds to help the council get out of debt violated the terms of the the deed to the property in place since it was donated by Dr. George Averill in the 1940s as a place where Scouts could camp."

@swilliams, you’re in for a wild ride. Since you mentioned cross-country, look up your local orienteering club and see if your troop can find time to attend their events. Lots of American youth have the discipline for running or for navigation, but few have both. You might be the person to change that.

Tonight's the night... Also my first meeting as SM instead of Advancement Chair or Committee member. Deep breath, and ready for the plunge.
