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

Screenshot from my copy of Ray Parker Jr.'s "Ghostbusters" video A lot of what's posted on Facebook(TM) comes and goes several times a year. Those who use and follow others over there know that for the last, um, several weeks or more, various "friends of yours" have asked aloud: "You're kidnapped, and before they hide you somewhere, you have the opportunity to call ONE (television show, action-adventure actor or team, or other celebrity) to rescue you. Who would you call (and why them, him or her)?"(in the business world, a suitable equal question would be something like "okay, you're being sued, and ......
Now would be an excellent time to read a book to your smallest kids, or have the young children who already know how to read, read it for themselves. This book has won a number of awards since it has been published. This is the story of a little baby Arctic Tern who, with the help of his parents, grows up learning how to take care of himself and fly. The cover shows a colorful artistic picture of what the baby Tern and one of his parents look like, but once you open the book you enter a full photo ......

An impressive recruiting effort to introduce area teenagers to Sea Scouting. Community service projects that build goodwill — and often make the local news. An I-gotta-try-that schedule of monthly outings that includes sailing, swimming, fishing, waterskiing, and wakeboarding. Any of those could explain why Sea Scout Ship 198 of Lewes, Del. (Del-Mar-Va Council), saw its membership leap from 10 to 28 last year. But Cheyenne Snyder, Ship 198’s boatswain during that remarkable 2019, has an explanation that’s harder to quantify. “I think this growth is because of the fun but educational program we have, ” she says, “along with the ......
When assembling a supergroup to race across rugged backcountry terrain using whatever means necessary — paddling or mountain biking, rappelling or climbing, orienteering or canyoneering — you’ll want a Scout or two on your side. Or, better yet, you’ll want an entire team of Scouts. Team Eagle Scouts, consisting of four Eagle Scouts and one recipient of the Venturing program’s highest honor, will compete in the World’s Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji, a reality competition series devised by Survivor creator Mark Burnett and hosted by Bear Grylls, Chief Ambassador of World Scouting. ”Without my background in Scouting, I wouldn’t have stood a ......
For a safe and fun bicycle ride, make sure you check and maintain these important parts of your bike. 1. Make sure your tires are inflated at the correct pressure.

Check tires for cracks and cuts. Replace tires that are suspect in any way. 4. Make sure your brake pads are adjusted correctly and not too worn. If there is less than ......
