2nd 100 Days of Scouting: Day 98

Robotics Merit Badge

OK, not quite the day I had planned, which means it is a Scouting day!

I'm feeling some pressure about closing the 100 Days of Scouting out on a good note, but I seem to be falling behind in everything.  Then I dwell on the shortcoming, and sure enough, it adds more pressure to the mix.

A friend in Scouting may be coming to the end of his days as a professional, and that is troubling.

A perfectly stormy day for perfectly stormy weather.

Today I:

• Helped out with a Cub Scout registration drive at Burger King in our town.  Thanks BK!
• Approved as a parent, the exercise regimen for Personal Fitness merit badge.
• Prepped a report for our Chartered Organization as they close out their fraternal year.

Gotta admit, it was kind of a frustrating day.  If a little thing could go wrong, it did--sometimes twice!  Patience is a virtue, patience is a virtue...

100 Days of Scouting: Day 98

Today I:

Hosted a Patrol Leaders Council with our incoming and outgoing Scout leaders.

Completed a Scoutmaster conference for a new Scout.

Followed up with a dad who needs to be dropped at the airport on the way home from a backpacking trip in June.  Now that is dedication!  Yep, we'll accommodate him.

Thought about how to turn 100 Days of Scouting into something more lasting...

PLC is just one more meeting a month that eats up our time, but yields great results down the road.  Always tough with the new patrol leaders, too. ;-)
