I was a scout once, never had any crazy Den leaders or and religious over or undertones mild or otherwise, I guess I was a lucky one.

I wanted to be a boy scout instead of a girl scout. This was before I got TEH GAY COOTIES. So I'd probably get the boot if I had found a way in.



But yeah, huzzah for custom titles!

[Plunder Down-Under]

There were 2 girls in the boy scouts at the same time as me, one of them was better than me at all that scout stuff.

Nice custom title Paige

[Shryke]

I went to girl scout camp.

[UberFische]

the boy scouts were too lame for me, I spent three weeks in the woods in a tree made into a lean-to... that was an interesting excuse note for my absence from school.

...am I the only one whose Girl Scout troop did the whole "running, jumping, climbing trees, building things with hammer&nails, playing with knives, etc" thing? We did primitive camping at least twice a year, and went on one big trip per year, usually things like white-water rafting or trips to the mountains. My brothers' dens didn't do nearly as much "boy" stuff as we did, and we had time for arts and crafts and first-aid certification and the like on the side.

...then again, my mom was one of our troop leaders...

I was a Cub Scout, myself. Being that our pack was based out of the Methodist church I used to attend, the religion aspect was there but not really emphasized. By the time I had all four of my badges, our pack had gone from about twenty kids to six or seven. We all turned out pretty good, I think. I never progressed to being a Boy Scout. By that point, I had other, geekier interests.

Wasn't able to join scouts. I love all that camping, creativity, et cetera stuff. But I got stuck in Brownies then Girl Guides. Have a friend who has convinced me to join this organisation that goes and camps in the middle of the country for two weeks. But at my age I have to join as a leader. All voluntary, but they cover expenses and get beer money, for supplies - seriously it's called Beer Money.

So looking forward to it. Just hope they let me join.

[Jecilyn]

Scouts here was just introducing the options for girls to join, so twas all good....there was about 1/5 of the troop female....6 out of 30.

[Wayne]

Here for the BSA we do have our Venture program which is for boys and girls age 14-20 that mainly do high adventure trips.

And it is nice to hear that most everyone had some type of positive experience with Scouting.

[Leffy]

scouts ARE good. if theres no crazy parents. Seolta's mom... well she shoulda been down here, then i'da prolly been all over it.

I know you're not a prude, was just a failed attempt at humor on my part.

Your mum is a failed attempt at humour on your part!!
