This is the first year.
And the times they are changing.
I thought about it
and I am all for it!
By
Scouting leaders say all families will now be able to participate in the
Cub Scouts, a program renowned for character-building fun and
adventure. Each Cub Scout den will be single gender — all boys or all girls.
Meanwhile, Cub Scout packs can include any combination of all-boy or
all-girl dens. Scouting has seen a decline in membership over the years, said Michelle
Copper, committee chair for Cub Scout Pack 451 in Scott. After studying
successful programs around the country, the organization found that
those run as family programs, which would include girls, were the most
successful packs.
I chose this story about the
Louisiana Boy Scouts
because one of my
Granddaughters
has just signed up to be in the first ever class of girls joining the
Cub Scouts
in that state.
Good for her.
I am very proud of you
Lilah!

Being A Proud Papa,
Jim Hauenstein,
And,
“I became a Cub Scout and learned
how to salute by bringing my index and middle fingers together and
touching my forehead just above my right eyebrow. I could snap a
smart salute and did so whenever the occasion arose. My uniform was second hand and already had
most of the required patches sewn onto it. It was quite worn and had a
faded look, which suited me just fine. It gave the illusion that I had
been around a while, and wasn’t just the tenderfoot that I really was.”

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
