look at the controls set up under the short-term camp program. The fix is easy, but it helps cover the various troops COR. if a scouter from Troop A has an issue dealing with a scout of another unit YP or injury, where does the liability fall > lets all COR know that it's a mixed group

wind chills no zero possible on a webelow this is a Webelos event I am glad they canceled the overnight. Look at activity level differences between Webelos and scouts. While temp is not a directly listed thing, common sense comes in here. I would be questioning taking a new scout out also. One error in clothing , sleeping bag or a list of many things could cause one kid to become hypothermic it's putting kids at risk they are not small marines.

So They will be giving a correction when the final numbers are out without holdovers in a grace period (plus any computing errors (my add))

The sad thing is that they will most likely try again when there are fewer people watching out to make an uproar, and they are in more dire states (never fixed the bad management) It will be sold just not today.

unfortunately a lot of ground has been made rocky by false vanity

getting any level of scouts to admit it needs help is hard enough. Both paid and volunteers. the few high functioning units i have seen over my years where one,s that had a high functioning scoutmaster that keep the group together and would leverage other adults as needed. most where past upper level managers/owners.

not sure we have any right to complain have you looked at price and can of the pop corn we are noted for selling

Again i ask how does this affect states were scouter are legal required reporter? Does BSA report any issue dealing with child abuse to local law enforcement or are the in fact hidden possible child abuse ?( to maybe protect their name again. i question BSA ability to filter where they have an involved risk? Fr. john Cousino

not sure how any of this is going to were in many states a scout leader is a required reporter . not just to council level but that state child protective services

I agree will the above but where are the parents in this situation? It was hard to fix a problem that has its roots in the home. Not a bad or abusive home but one where there are no controls taught or placed. "Johnie can do no wrong." I would be very careful on what you as the troop do as the parents may be unwilling to see that little Johnie is in the wrong, but only see that the adults/troop are being very mean to their perfect child. A report made to scouting about the way you delt with their child may be hard to defend based on scouting current rules and practices.

Not undertaking Council level fundraisers most make your unit not very popular with the DE. what do you do with friends of scouting?

do like the girl scout due assign them an adult scouter to act as aid / guide. If you have any worries. John

That something. WOW john

Not sure i am following your battery set up. i have a 12 volt 18 amp (18,000 mamp) battery i use on one of my Ham rigs. its 1/3 the weight of agm battery a 100 amp hour 12 volt lithium battery runs around $300 to $400 I also advice be careful how you transport the battery they are considered hazardous so very tight rules about being on public carriers ie Airplanes i will get back to you about finding a unit that run on 12 or 24 volts Dc directly cuts the conversion lose. i have not been in Home care respiratory in a while. the last person also offered some helpful ideas. good wish's for the weight reduction that will give you the best results over all .
