      End of 2024 membership numbers

      By Tron · Posted

      Does that mean that we can expect multiple council mergers in the next year or two? It is my understanding that national does not want councils under 5000 youth.

      National Medal for Outdoor Achievement being discontinued?

      By UKScouterInCA · Posted

      Well, National discontinued this medal after all. No announcement, no community feedback, no phasing it out so as to allow Scouts actively working on it to complete it. What a shame.

      The conundrum of our current National Political challenges?

      By SSScout · Posted

      You all speak my mind.  The folks that want to believe without research or believing their own eyes and ears  have , it seems, always been with us.  One episode from my way past history sticks with me.... Way back in 19 and 66, our HS english class somehow (I forget why, maybe it was close to a holiday) got to discussing WW 2.  Our english teacher , Mr. Emler, let the discussion flow where it would.  One of my classmates, he was a football "star" , spoke up and declared that the Holocaust was fiction, made up by a Jewish conspiracy...  Mr. Emler got very quiet, sat down on the edge of his desk and proceeded to tell us of how his Army unit had been among the first to enter, "liberate",  Buchenwald.  The class got very quiet. The footballer never spoke up again.    It was not until much later that I made the connection, that Mr. Emler, and indeed many of the men, and women , I knew and admired were of "that age".  My first SM had been in the army, but I never knew much about that. Our local Sea Scout Ship was Skippered by an old  Chief Bosun's Mate. The local Sea Scout Regatta is named after him.  And then we ignore what is right in front of us, and hope for the best....

      The conundrum of our current National Political challenges?

      By skeptic · Posted

      So, we should find ways to expose them without trying to influence them seems the answer.  How to do that is not clear, as I have been accused of being "woke" and also disrespectful when I have pointed out what seems to me to be blatant bending of our ruling documents and poor examples being portrayed by elected people.  I will not call them leaders, though I guess that too could be considered disrespectful.  A very fine line and hard to toe.

      By qwazse · Posted

      @acco40 short answer: yes. Half of that audience became  of voting age, and the majority likely voted in favor of the challenger. The incumbent did not present at the ‘23 Jambo. A smaller portion of the audience became of voting age, and the majority of those voted for the challenger. Regardless, “sheltering” scouts from our nation’s leaders (and what thoughtful opinions we may have of them) is an immoral capitulation to memes.
