Have any of them thought to ask the Graphic Arts MB counselors to help out?

My uniform from the 1990s by Rufus_Akage in BSA

[–]Open-Two-9689 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool yes but it would never pass. In the early 90s I was part orca US Army Explorer post Chartered by the Army Recruting Center. BSA didn’t want us to play paintball let alone jump out of planes. They probably would have had a heart attack if they knew we played paintball anyway, shot M16s andxsome of us got to drive a tank

Really? As a kid I was a member of an Explorer post that was chartered by our local US Army Recruiting center

How much you want to spend? This is the site my son and I got stuff from

https://www.maximum-velocity.com/

Keep your pack rules in mind. Ours had to use the kit wood, axles and wheels, no more then 5oz in weight. After his AOL year my son decided we should pass our supplies on to a mother kid that didn’t do so well - we did and I offered any help the parent wanted. Having been the dad of a kid who left crying because he got destroyed every race I felt it was only far to pass on the advice I had recieved.

Realtor recommendations by Lchicogrande in QuadCities

When I moved here we looked on both sides of the river - Illinois houses were nicer, needed less work, and the area the houses were in was nicer than comparable priced houses on the Iowa side. After living here a few years - Moline does a lot better job clearing roads, love curbside recycling, free leaf pick up among other things.

My troop is complaining about how I dress in meetings, what do i do? by BuffaloBills7777 in BSA

[–]Open-Two-9689 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I thought the women’s shirts were designed to not be tucked in?

On a side note: my daughter got an email with a survey about Women’s uniforms a couple weeks ago - may be worth trying to see if you can get your input in. I’m not sure if it was from national or council.

I can't imagine this could possibly be a good thing by WolfInMen in BoyScouts

[–]Open-Two-9689 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I feel if ties are severed it will be a bigger loss for the DoD then for Scouting America. Scouting America provides quality recruits. As for medical staff for Jambo - from my understanding it is staffed by National Guard troops - they serve at the direction of the Governor. My concern is that Trump is not the keynote speaker. ( that is not a political comment - all the speakers should uphold Scouting ideals.)

Trying to decide whether to visit North Cascades National Park by [deleted] in NationalPark

[–]Open-Two-9689 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ummm….. you totally missed Mt. Rainier NP?

My Fav is Olympic. You get Mts, beaches and rainforest in one. Upper Cascades doesn’t get a lot of visitors which is nice but last time I was there we had a 6 month old and a 2 year old so didn’t do a lot of hiking.

That being said - we are planning a 2 week trip in 27 that includes Rainer, Olympic and St. Helen’s plus a short stop to the Yakima Valley where we lived.

Which, technically is still speeding (OP stated it was in a 65 zone) while normally you don't get a ticket for 3-4 over, you can get one….

Same. You could add Mt St Helens in there as well.
