A Scoutmaster's Blog

This is a online journal of a Boy Scout troop scoutmaster's point of view and thoughts on over 25 years as a Boy Scout Leader in central Minnesota. This site also serves as the home of the "Melrose Scouting Productions Podcast" which features Scouting related videos. Visit the site of Melrose Boy Scout Troop 68 at http://www.melrosetroop68.org for nearly 200 pages of local Scouting history.

Scouting Blogs

I have been looking around the internet lately looking at other Scouting Blogs. They only seem to be a few and are not very easy to find yet. Some are fairly new and have not hit the search engines yet. However, I have found several that are worth mentioning so I would like to take a moment and provide you with some links to check out.

BSA News Blog: http://www.bsanews.com/
Boy Scout Trail Scoutmaster Blog: http://www.boyscouttrail.com/blog.asp
Scoutmaster.typepad Blog: http://scoutmaster.typepad.com/my_weblog/

Lone Star Scouter: http://buffaloeagle.wordpress.com/

Check them out. I think you will find them interesting.

By the way, you have probably noticed that this blog's picture has nothing to do with the subject of this blog. I found it on one of the blogs listed here. I thought is was a cool picture and even a better project to build at a Scout function. Besides, when you think about it, maybe it does represent this blog. After all, aren't we all riding this thing we call blogging?

since we would either ride the bus or walk to whoevers home the den meeting was held at the only way to have a uniform was to wear if for the day. i don't remember anyone teasing me or the others in scouting about uniforms.
one vivid memory is wearing my boy scout pocket knife on my belt clip and having a teacher ask to look at it. he checked the blade and when he saw it was sharp told me that i was taking proper care of it and to put it back on my belt clip. man did i have a big smile.
these days you can't do that but then things were different in the 70's weren't they.
