*Can you briefly forcast the projected plans for the older boy's with relation to a scouting style outdoor program?As you know by now, I'm involved with a unique BSA troop comprised of members of many local community churches brought togather for the purpose of scouting. The age group I'm refering too should have achieved the GMA earlier and "finished" the core of the Royal Ranger goals.. *but may still have a desire to facilitate a traditional program that follows along with Patrol's and team building, merit acheivement and exploreation of vocational challenges. I am aware of several scouting programs that could mesh with these boys and their parents to respect their cultural and spiritual heritage while building character with proven programs in High Adventure and resident camps ect. I talked with a national represenitive of BSA and with my local Scout executive, and the roadwork is in place on Scouting's side to construct a bridge of understanding to working closely with Faith based groups. Is this in any way a possibilty or option/opportunity for the boys? D.Wheeler -=A=-
