My son the cub scout
My son recently joined the cub scouts. I am a teeny bit leery since it seems to be full of staunch black and white extreme conservatives (adults) but the boys are having a great time.
Kieran got to present the colors on their Sept. 11th ceremony and was incredibly proud to do it...and watching them all rise when the flag came in at their pack meeting and saying the pledge of allegiance was very touching. He is already working on a bunch of badges and is doing really well. Just a proud momma braggin a little. *G* How do you all feel about the cub scouts/boy scouts in general?

Our Legion post holds the charter for a couple of cub scout and boy scout packs. And, coincidentally, we are going to a meeting tonight to show them how to properly fold the American flag. Tell your little guy to have fun. Do they still do the pinewood derby race cars?

Drywall,
I remember (way back) the Legion Post my Dad belonged to used to take out the Boy's to lean how to shoot. My Dad and I didn't do a lot together but I do remember that day. I've got only gal's and did things with them until they discovered boys - then it wasn't cool to hang with Dad. But meanwhile both my gals can change oil - check the fluids - change tires and my oldest daughter throws a football better than most guys she knows. So I've had some input.

Boats,
There is a gun safety program here too. It's not run by the legion post but they store their weapons in our arms room. I think you have to be 12 years old to take the course. They get a certificate and a patch for their jacket. The certificate is req'd to buy a big game license if your under 18. |

Cub Scouts is a good start.
for any boy. I had my kid in "Indian Guides" until he was old enough for Cubs then he went on to Boy Scouts. It must have made a pretty good impression on him as he went on to West Point and is now the Chaplain for the 325 PIR (2d Bde of the 82d Airborne).
