Baseballfan Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hondaman, the closest I can come to helping you with your Tiger estimations is my first son, who was a Tiger (exactly as you described) in 98-99. The change must have been after that but before second son, Tiger (regular uniform) in 2007-8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick_in_CA Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Howzabout building a fence for your CO? Ever see a 8 or 9 year old use a posthole digger? It is a joy (to me) to see him lift and push that thing, and then "help" his dad/uncle/CM to get it deep. That is satisfaction, getting a deep hole! You do know that according to the tool use guidelines, a scout has to be 14 before they can use a post hole digger (or a wheeled cart)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSScout Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 "Aye ,And thirdly, the code is more what you'd call "guidelines" than actual rules. ...." Since the young Scout is "allowed" to use a shovel. I see no problem with using a vertical shovel , with adult supervision. Certainly not a powered posthole digger. And as for "wheeled carts" , if we allow them to pull each other in "Cub Carts", where is the problem with pulling a 2 wheeled garden cart? Or a 4 wheeled one? Cubs need to learn teamwork, and there is nothing like watching 2 or 3 or 4 Cubs working together to move a wagon of dirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonG172 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 We enjoy the tool box and the Bird House- no sense in reinventing the wheel here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
