[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wonderful for my son.  Went on to become an Eagle.  No religion in our troop.  What is the current controversy?[/quote]

I don't think there is a current controversy, but parents whose kids are aging into eligibility may have 1980s/90s references about scouts.[/quote]

NP here.

There is so much training for leaders now. Two-deep leadership is required for all events, both Cubs & Scouts BSA. This includes merit badge sessions in BSA.

My son was in Cubs. We signed him up on a whim. "This will be fun." He loved the camping and hikes. He loved the "boy led" aspect of Scouts BSA. He went on to earn Eagle last year. It was the best whim decision we ever made.

I agree with a PP that the Den leader(s) and Cubmaster will determine what sort of Pack you have. You won't know until you try it for a year. We had an amazing Cubmaster my son's first 3 years.[/quote]

I'm definitely reluctant to have my kids in Cub Scouts based on events, but this takeaway is great. How awesome he wasn't a legacy Eagle (some are!) and really found his groove...on a whim![/quote]
