Beavah Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Yah, lookin' for some fellow old-timers... Does anybody remember the timing and rationale for the BSA switching to "adult run" on BOR's? My aging, addled brain ain't up to the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleInKY Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 I'm pretty sure it happened in the late 80s. I know we did it when I was a youth (70s-80s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr56 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Gee, I must be younger than I thought, I can't remember it ever being anything but adult led. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
local1400 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 In my scout days (80's) all BORs were conducted by adults from the troop committee. We had one gentleman in particular with NO left arm (WW2 vet) and I always didnt know how to give the scout handshake in this situation! However I have a 1972 printing of "Patrol and Troop Leadership" (ah-remember the green covers?) which states the 'The progress review for TF, SC, and FC is handled by the troop leaders council. On pg. 99 titled 'Who Serves?'it says the PL's serve and the SPL, or when assigned the ASPL serves as the chairman of the review. Hey, I know its 34 years old, but that old stuff worked well then! The old book goes on to say S,L, and E 'scorecards' are reviewed be the TLC BUT the troop committee handles the actual review itself.(This message has been edited by local1400) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
