crgholthus Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Is there any way around the two deep. Can I take my son(6) with me to pick up another scout,whose parents dont have enough money for gas. Rural area 7 miles apart. They have two boys (1 is tiger,other is Webelos 2) I dont want to lose either one of these guys, & the SM doesnt know their financial situation. It seems a shame to lose scouts,just because of no ride Nutz4scouting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 I'm not following all of your post, but since Tiger Cubs must have an adult partner with them, wouldn't you be driving the Tiger friend along with his parent? That would eliminate the concern you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crgholthus Posted March 11, 2005 Author Share Posted March 11, 2005 Sometimes the mother or stepfather are willing to drive them in,sometimes they cant. I've stalled on picking him up,as he will soon become a bobcat,then wolf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank10 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 As long as you have two scouts in the car you are covered. The fact that one of them is your son is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anarchist Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 they should have covered those kind of things...In fast start, Basic and YP! Leaders are not supposed to be ALONE with boys other than their own children. TWO deep is for events so that there is never a question of a single adult being alone with a boy... It would be nearly impossible to drive troops anywhere if you needed two adults for every vehicle. JUST NOT ONE SCOUT IN A CAR WITH ONE ADULT LEADER unless the scout is a son of one of the leaders... glad you got your answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank10 Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 "JUST NOT ONE SCOUT IN A CAR WITH ONE ADULT LEADER unless the scout is a son of one of the leaders..." anarchist - Please tell me you typed this wrong... and you really meant unless it is the son of the driver. Same rules apply to leaders sons and all the other boys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anarchist Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 relax wingnut...was a typo...some times my slow fingers (both of them) out pace my even slower mind... should have read: "the son of that leader...." sorry for the fuss... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
