gwd-scouter Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 MaScout - your 15 years beats my 11. Started Cubs when oldest was in 1st grade. Was his den leader for 5 years. When he crossed over to Troop, signed on as CM for the Pack. One year later, youngest son joined as a Tiger and I remained CM for 5 more years 'till he crossed over to the Troop. Oldest now in college, youngest just finished 2nd year with the Troop. So, CS years + BS years = 13 years altogether (probably just a youngster compared to others on this forum). Hmm, let's see - how many hours would that be at 1 hour a week per 13 years worth of weeks? Ah, to tired to do the math. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutNut Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Well, let's see. Total time as a youth in scouting - 0. Total time as an adult Leader in Scouting - 14 years. Girl Scouts - 14 years Cub Scouts - 11 years Boy Scouts - 6 years I took my daughter & her GS mates from 1st grade Brownies thru Silver Award, Gold Award, & 12th grade graduation to Lifetime Adult Girl Scouts. Then I was down to "just" working at the Service Unit level. I led my son & his Den from 1st grade Tiger thru 5th grade Webelos. I stayed with Cubs & also help with the Troop & District.

seabear Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Let see 46 years now, but the last couple has not been really out with the youth, my heart and spirit is there, but the rest of me just can't get there any more. My wife now heads the adult branch of the family in scouting . Now I just sit on committees, I miss the smell of woodsmoke and the laughter of youth.

Kaji Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 5 years in Cub Scouts followed by 7 years in Boy Scouts for a total of 12 consecutive years, but that's as a youth. For adult time I got one year in when I was 20 (took some time to find a new unit), and then went to Japan for a year, and am now back with the same unit for a second year. So for consecutive adult years I'm at 1 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
