I was a Scout from ages 6 to 18, and an Assistant Scoutmaster and District Committee member for a few years after that. I was deeply involved throughout those years, working on camp staff, lodge offices for the OA, etc. Well, after a little over a decade away from the organization I have registered once again to volunteer. Tuesday was my first meeting back.

Anyone else around these parts a Scouter?

That is great! I volunteer for a lot of youth programs, currently involved with the First Tee program. I find kids benefit from having someone other than parents standing over them after they get to certain age. I tried scouts a couple of times, but never stuck with it. I think it was the first time I did the Klondike thing. Friggin rained and snowed and was just a miserable experience.
