That's been a big deal in our family. My dad was on the MT Council when we still lived in MT and approved our region's Eagle projects, and basically decided who was worthy and who was not. He also received the Silver Beaver award which is the only award that can be given to a non-scout (and a woman) for service to the organization. My mom was a Den Mother for a year or two as well, back in my brother's Cub days. <BR/><BR/>It's too bad Podunk's troop is disbanding. Is there another nearby that CJ could join up? There are so many amazing opportunities through the Boy Scouts (my brother got to take a canoe trip at Boundary Waters last summer, which he <I>loved</I>) and it seems a shame that he won't be able to do it now, when he showed an interest. Plus, I remember the excitement of the Pinewood Derbies. Seriously. Don't deny the kid a Pinewood Derby! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28496882.post-1159991091606777982006-10-04T14:44:00.000-05:002006-10-04T14:44:00.000-05:00I tried girl scouts once too, but didn't even make...I tried girl scouts once too, but didn't even make it to the cookie part.<BR/><BR/>Now the most involved I will get is purchasing the cookies, but only from the comfort of my own doorstep.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28496882.post-1159988179492276752006-10-04T13:56:00.000-05:002006-10-04T13:56:00.000-05:00Chocolate solves everything!
