4CouncilsScouter Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I was visiting my local Scout Shop today, and I noticed my council now has a security guard. As I was leaving, I saw the guard heckling a volunteer in the lobby about why they were there. I saw another Scouter I knew watching from the other side of the lobby. I asked that Scouter if he knew anything about the new security, and he said he didn't know anything about it. He recalled seeing the guard at the council banquet watching the doors but had no idea otherwise about why we have one. I'll make my opinion clear. I don't think our council has the need or can justify the cost of a security guard. Our Scout Shop and service center are not in a bad part of town. We're next to a decent sized bank and an IT company, and across the street from a gated apartment complex. More importantly though, I can't support a council that has employees, contracted or not, harassing the people who put on their program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkMan Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Sounds pretty weird. Makes me wonder if something happened that resulted in it. Given the tight budgets, can't imagine they're doing it on a whim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blancmange Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Have your COR make a phone call and find out why. It's your money that they're spending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
