I am a Bear den leader for pack 1561. Our pack is dwindling to nothing. I have hardly any parent support. Im basically Cubmaster, committee chair, and all around den leader. UGH Im planning on having the surgery in the spring. How are you handling your recovery and scouts too? Carol 345

Hi! Vickie here, and I'm an Assistant Scoutmaster in the Chief Seattle Council in Washington State. We just transfered to Troop 474. I don't know much yet from this troop, but the previous troop I was with didn't care much for women working the troop. My boys also were finding the troop wasn't much into doing much hiking and advancement activities, so we transfered as of two days ago. I had my GBP Distal 11/11/03, and have found my scouting experience to much more fun, and able to actually go on hiking outings when they did them. The newer troop we transfered to does alot more physical activities and am hoping to achieve my goal of attending WoodBadge in the Spring! Vickie

Sounds like a great idea, Allee! Thanks for responding! -Sherrie
