Good day fellow Scouters!
We are just days away from the American Thanksgiving holiday, so I just wanted to ask everyone to head over to our facebook group and tell us what they are most thankful for. I am thankful for my family and friends, my fur baby Jack, good health, a good job that I enjoy and you, my InsaneScouter family. Be safe and do not choke on any turkey or let the in-laws drive you up a tree (giggles).
If you find this newsletter interesting or helpful please share it with your scouting family.
Lastly, please keep your eyes peeled, with some luck a number of improvements to the website including a more advanced search option and a ultra new treasure chest are coming soon. You can help inspire where we put our focus by taking a few moments to fill out our survey at https://forms.gle/SFiJDv5h5WfM58ee8.
Thank You!
Yours In Scouting

Note: This is the 29th in an occasional series where I share the Eagle Scout project before-and-after photos. See the complete collection here and submit your own here. To fully understand the impact Eagle Scout projects have on communities, you need to see to believe. That’s why I asked to see Eagle Scout project before-and-after photos — the same photos prospective Eagles are asked to include with their post-project report. The latest batch of 15 projects includes an outdoor stage for a church in Tennessee, an informational kiosk outside a historic house and a total makeover for the Humane Society of Eastern Carolina. What’s great is that you can ......Â

This is Unsung Heroes, a Bryan on Scouting blog series celebrating under-reported acts of Scouting heroism. These are stories that don’t make national headlines — but should. That’s doubly true in this world that can always use more good news. Read the latest story below, and find instructions for sharing your own Unsung Heroes story at the end of the post. On a cold winter day last December, along a snow-covered stretch of Interstate 93 in New Hampshire, Kyle Dimick told his dad to pull over. “I looked out the window and saw a Subaru SUV on its side, †Kyle ......Â
Article submitted by David Nelson of the Great Alaska Council Fall recruitment is one the most exciting times of the year for Scouting. Setting forth to deliver the promises of outdoor adventure, positive family interactions, and strong character development instills a sense of hope and renewal each year. One of the challenges that is surfacing more and more is that there is a misalignment between the number of Packs serving available schools. In some districts, Packs serve whichever school is most convenient, while others employ limits based on geography alone. A strategic conversation with your unit leaders on the appropriate ......
