scoutldr Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 "It got down to about 25 at night. No comments were made to us or any others" Perhaps not...but that cub who spent a miserable night in his Transformers sleeping bag may never be seen around Scouting again.

Eagle92 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 BACK ON TOPIC, One thing I did with my TCs and their partners two weeks prior to the council's family campout in Oct was to give a very basic class on what to bring to a family camp. Some of the things I talked abuot included bringing extra blankets, putting more underneath you than above you, wearing only PJs and a hat, placing clothes and hat inside the sleeping bag, etc. Also made sure that yes they could just come for the day too, leaving whenever they felt like it.

Basementdweller Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Well if the CM didn't take a look at the boys sleeping gear before dark he deserve to lose him. I think we all agree that the quality of All scouting programs varies widely. Had the young man attended our Packs outing, his bag would have been evaluated as inadequate and we would have put his bag inside one of the spares we brought for just this type of thing. We also have spare sleeping pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
