Just bought a can off base. Happy to see that there are still programs that teach boys how to become men!  :salute

I got four bags of caramel corn with nuts.  I started out as a cub scout, then webelow, then went as far as a Star scout, then started hanging out with the wrong crowd.   :uhoh  But hey, it was the 60s.  Anyways, I have a lot of good memories of camping jamborees (summer and winter), cave exploring, etc. from the Scouts.

Cheers,  Jim  One-eye

Hey Mols, do they ship to Canada or has our NAFTA trade talks broken down so far that I can't get boy scout popcorn across the border?  :devil

KB, you can't even get Doritos and Cheetos up there so I'm sure Boy Scout popcorn will be highly frowned upon. You may have to go to the dark web for your Boy Scout popcorn.

Austin is Really shocked with the support from my Online buddies here and he thanks you all. On a Side note he made the Rank of First Class Last night (well almost there needs the Scoutmaster Conference and BOR but his Scoutmaster told him to start working Star). I am reliving my days in Scouting with him and I am on the District Committee as the Training Dude, Also I earned my Wood Badge this year and a Proud Beaver. My Daughters are in Girl Scouts and I support them also and neither one wants to come over to the Boy Scouts. Yes Times have changed since we all went thru but we have to roll with the new Era of Scouting.

Once again thank you all for Supporting my Son Austin

I'm a bit ashamed to admit that the idea that your son was selling porn for Boy Scouts made me  :O until I took the time to properly read the title...

Father of 2 scouts here: my oldest (17) is now a leader for kids aged 6-8 (called Baladins here), and my youngest is a Baladin (...in another unit, I'm not THAT irresponsible ;) ).

Best of luck to your son, the scout experience definitely helped my oldest during some difficult teenage years....

Rolling with it is how we wound up in this mess.   We’ve let the leadership and outside pressure chip away at everything.   It’s one of the saddest things I’ve witnessed...

I understand alot of us are still wondering how it is going to pain out cause we need to have 2 Scout masters now and the Girls still have to be separate sleeping quarters.
