briantshore Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I joined cubscouts late in my boyhood, quit when the Den Leader canciled the first camp out. Joined Boy Scouts, and loved it. Made Eagle Scout, Chapter Chief for OA, Philmont, and later Assistant Scoutmaster till I joined the Army. Now I have a son that was a tiger last year and now we are in the wolf den. Something I learned as I went through the ranks, is to listen to those that have walked the trail before you, and you may now fall into as many of the traps that they have already stumbled across. I am always looking to learn a new idea. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperParatus Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Welcome to the forum. I know you will really enjoy looking at scouting through your son's eyes. Some things have changed, but the important stuff never changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleInKY Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Great point about learning from those who have walked the trail before you. There are some real trailblazers here! But be careful, some cut across the switchbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleInKY Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Anarchist - I didn't say I cut across them, I said there are some that do. In this context, I meant that there are some "trailblazers" that try to short-cut the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
