Sounds like a healthy system. How long are your backpacking prep-trips?

Where at the site? All I could find were 2022 documents.

I was only looking for a couple last week, but I did buy my daughter horsemanship and it was Scouting America branded.

Now, all we need is the Scouts to read them!

2 (?) counties of the UP were part of it. They were merged with Hiawatha district of Bay-Lakes before Hiawatha was transferred to Michigan Crossroads. It just seemed to make sense sense from a UP of Michigan completeness, but now it makes more sense.

@jcousino I was going to say the same, but it is so neat.

Well, not always. They do have full veto, but on some volunteers, that have had lets say a DUI, it is up to the COR to approve after council does the background check and says "well, it is up to the COR". Not common, but it does happen.

This is a good point. It is treated like a mini day of summer camp.

Our district has the option to earn 1 or 2. I’m involved as an archery MCA ONLY so scouts can complete partials from camp. I think that is a good service for the Scouts where the others MBs are not good scouting. In my youth, there were no MBs at camporees nor were there merit badge universities.

Nice look! They forgot to mention I’ll be 50 as well.

Thanks for sharing. It is sad. I can’t help with STEM days or other merit badge days for the same reason. I can’t be a part of going through the motions, but not earning the badge.

Good observation.

From discord; Freezing temps overnight, 6+ inches of heavy slush, another inch of freezing rain, 100ish collapsed tents (with people stuck inside), 50+ sent to hospitals, an official designation as a mass casualty event, and responses from local, county and state emergency services

It is my understanding that the summit was the site of a mountain top mining where the tailings were used to fill the valleys and create the open untreed areas. So, the Korean Jamboree was the second?
