Greetings Scouters, do you have a business that follows the principles of Scouting or directly relates to Scouting? Then our new "Connections" group is for you. As a member, you will be able to network with like-minded Scouters, bounce ideas around, and occasionally we will have a video or article we review and discuss to help us all grow and improve what we are doing. The only cost is $36 a year, which would help cover the costs of maintaining & improving InsaneScouter. The group will use an email style forum powered by Mailman. That way you don't have somewhere else to go, its just a matter of checking your email. Drop us a note if your interested.
Don’t forget you can support all of our hard work and effort to maintain and improve InsaneScouter by joining Knapsack https://insanescouter.org/p/5875/0/Knapsack.html

Merit badges are earned by Scouts working with a registered merit badge counselor, someone who works or has experience in the topic area and desires to share his or her experiences, knowledge and training with a Scout (and a buddy). There are specific requirements for each badge, which are not just "write this down" or "tell me what the book or I've said to you, " but rather "do, " "show, " "demonstrate, " "find, " "prepare, " "play, " or so many other verbs -- actions to the counselor. Depending on the Scout and his preparedness, it may take ......

And he planned everything without a single in-person meeting?” Welcome to Eagle Scout projects in the age of COVID-19. For more than 100 years, Scouts have adapted to meet their community’s most pressing needs. When the moment has demanded it, Scouts have found creative solutions to problems others might try to step around. No pandemic has changed (or ever will change) that fact. In May, William ......

Last summer, more than 120 Scouts met at the Chicagoland Lionel Railroad Club’s clubhouse in New Lenox, Ill., to learn about the world of model trains. The 3, 600-square-foot clubhouse features dozens of model trains that run through handcrafted terrain built by club members. This summer, the clubhouse has been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but that doesn’t mean people stop pursuing their hobby. Working on model trains counts toward requirements for the Railroading merit badge. During this pandemic, trying a new hobby might be a fun way to pass the time at home. If your state is reopening ......

Hi! I’m new to scouting, and recently became an assistant den leader for my son. I am working on getting my uniform together, and had a question regarding numeral colors because I have heard mixed messages. As a leader, am I supposed to use the red numerals or the tan? Is there a significance between using either? Thanks so much. submitted by /u/HeyItsToast [link] [comments]...
I made the rank of Eagle Scout as a US venture scout. I’m going to be volunteering as a scouter in the Mexican Scouting Association. Local unit isn’t sure if I should wear the Mexican uniform or an adult US scouter uniform. What do people in this situation do? Do they wear the local uniform? Is there a patch I should have like the US Scouter Eagle knot or a similar thing? submitted by /u/madocgwynedd [link] [comments]...
