Yeah, amazing what happens when you lock in a large group of coed, hormonal teens and chaperone them with slightly befuddled 20 something youth minister.Quote:

Scouts is a great educational program. But your experience will be determined by the quality of men involved in helping guide your troop and it's leaders.

I get nostalgic and a little sad every time I go into a scout camp and see pictures on the wall from the 80s of lakes full of canoes and strong looking young men.
The majority of the kids in our troop (bigger...around 100 boys and 12 girls in the linked girls troop) are in pretty good shape, especially compared to the average kid out there.Quote:
Not a lot of kids today upholding the 'physically strong' part in the scout oath.

While our Scouters are generally in good shape, when you look at Scouters as a whole....that's a different story...
