Ditto to what Bob White posted!
And if you council keeps any type of records, this SM's attitude might prevent some Scouts from advancing.

I have never seen anyone with so much knowledge at their fingertips not have a clue how to use it! Very few (if any) of his post actually have anything to do with the the real world! And if it wasn't for ancient orators & the ilk, Wheeler wouldn't even have an opinion!
Mental institutions are filled with Wheelers! Wonder which one he is in & if they know he has internet access!

Mark,
Sounds like your training course sucked! Too bad. And if this is the same crew that runs Woodbadge I feel for the volunteers in your council. You can go out of council for Woodbadge!
I have felt the BSA has too much training available and therefore things like your experience happen. And no one is really trained. I have always felt if there is a general training course for everyone with breakout sessions for spscific jobs in Scouting this is more effective!

I think it would be a great idea! I've got some stuff that my council uses! If someone would be willng to put everything together, it would be a great idea! Actually, if someone developed a template then people could fit their material to the template & it would make it a lot easier to do!

I loved doing this when I was the SM! I always related stories about the Eagle! Good ones naturally!
Since you might not know that much about the Scout since this is your 1st one, I would talk to the other leaders & Scouts in your Troop & get some details that way.
Enjoy it! Smile a lot! It's a great time!

Ours is held in April, too. It's a catered affair with awards & skits & general fun! And the main course usually includes chicken!

"Laurie:
You are the one that voted down the post "The training of boys to be men"."
You're good, Wheeler! Considering you can't tell who voted how & if there is only one vote the voters identity is hidden! Just like the rest of your posts. Useless!
hops,
It would be nice if Wheeler made sense. I'd be happy if he could make change!

Actually, Wheeler, 90% of what you post is other people's words. So by you stating you stand behind what you post means absolutly nothing! Sort of like most of your posts!
Wheeler=Yaworski=No! Think about it for a minute! Wheeler could be Yaworski using reference material!

A response isn't part of the requirement. And time isn't a factor, either. The purpose is to be able to express oneself in the written word to a person of authority.

OK - Who asked about the Zulu's? It seems Wheeler is answering his own questions now! Did ya ever notice the later in the day it gets the stranger Wheeler gets? The medication must be wearing off again.
Achilleez,
Yes God always was and always will be. Do you have proof this is not true?
Science can't explain everything. If it could, then the theory of evolution would be fact not theory.

Whoa! Was that last post from Wheeler? It almost sounds like his/hers/its own opinion! And it even had some actual facts! Must be a good medication day for Wheeler.
Brr. It's getting cold again!
I have never seen anyone not answer a question as well as Wheeler in a long time! Amazing! Nothing but spew!
I noticed Wheeler used the word oxymoron. Me thinks he used three too many letters!

If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a duck.
If it walks like a socialist, talks like a socialist, it's a communist.
Socialism & communism are not interchangeable terms.
