Hi, I am very happy I found this website! I am a mother of three children ages 7 to 12. My main reason for getting involved in Scouting was I want a stronger bond with my children. I am very involved in all that they do, Football, Basketball, BibleDrill, and the list goes on and on. My youngest however does none of those things. He is a very fragile child. But he loves the outdoors and everything involved with it. So this is where our adventure begins. I really saw a strong need for a Den in my area. We have a large gap between my county and the next county There are about 4 towns around my Church with out a Scouting program. I could either join another group or well what an amazing way to reach out and bring more towns together. So here I am, hopefully making something a great adventure not just for me and my son but for many other parents and their children!!! However, Wow I am just overwhelmed with the information. I feel like there is so much to take in. We have our first meeting on Monday Nov 8, 2010. We will be starting out as a very small group and so I will have a mixture of boys in the group. I am thinking that this will be a combined class and not one that branches off at the moment atleast. Am I the only one with a group like that? I guess my biggest fear is starting out brand new and never seeing the ropes before!
