MIScout, Your Roundtable friend was just pulling your leg. The Adult Men's scout trousers for the last several years has had the elastic in the waist, both in the long and short varieties. I have my old size 32 pair without elastic from the mid 1980's and the new size 32's actually fit better. You can find ones without elastic on eBay, but all the official trousers now I'm aware of have the elastic. If your still self-consious, wear the belt and no one will ever know. Regards, KonaScout

I have no connection with this product and don't wish to just hype something. I'm sure the other software solutions are very servicable products. We have a couple families that have difficulty signing their boy's books and have never logged on. But we plan to stay with it.(This message has been edited by KonaScout)

(cont') because they know the awards will get ordered more quickly). We also avoided compatability problems with our Macintosh and Linox families. Regarding portability, we first just used a notebook computer at den meetings with the relevant web page previously opened (attendance/dues or wolf advancement) for that den. The records could be updated on the offline webpage, and then updated when one was back online; but now our charter organization has installed a wireless network in their office which reaches our meeting room and we can access the internet. It has also given us great Pack family email communication and the various output forms are great. Highly recommended!

As we started a new Pack this past April, I looked at 4 different scout record systems and went with ScoutTrack.com even before our first Pack purchase. We have LOVED it. The three main issues it solves for us: 1. avoiding the bottleneck of only one or two people updating the records 2. maintaining multiple synchronized databases and 3. creating ownership by Pack families.

We would be interested in anywhere from 3-30 depending on what the shipping works out to be. Thanks for the offer.

I note that I'm a Junior Forum member. Can I one day look forward to being able to post more than 5 lines of text at a time on this forum, (even after repreated (re-edits)?

(cont') (In that our official Cub Pack flag has just cost us $156 including $109 for lettering, I'm not as excited as perhaps I should be at the thought of needing to make new Den flags each year. Thanks for your help!

(cont') (ie the orange Tiger Den #1 flag cannot become the Wolf Den #1 flag just as the Webelo Den #5 flag cannot cycle back and becomethe Tiger Den #5 flag.) It would seem that the best solution is to make or use flags that are not specific to a given rank. (In that our official Cub Pack flag has just cost us 2

Thanks for your helpful comments and good ideas! It still seems strange that the official Scout Den Flag and Den Number system as sold in the catalog, doesn't seem to allow the den flag to be used for more than one year (ie the orange Tiger Den #1 flag cannot become the Wolf Den #1 flag just as the Webelo Den #5 fla
