Preventing a Stolen Troop Trailer
Advice from some experts
(Maybe they learned from sad experience)
"Bryan on Scouting" says, "Acts of theft don’t get much lower than stealing from a pack, troop, or crew. But search Google News for “troop trailer stolen,” and you’ll see it happens all the time."
Click here for 12 suggestions for preventing a theft, some of which are definitely thinking outside the box.
Suggestion #1 is to buy a wheel lock like the one that some police departments use to boot illegally parked cars. Suggestion #10 is to remove one of the wheels and store it inside the trailer.
Eagle Scout Extension for Older Girls
A Temporary Extension for 16 year old girls (and boys)
Given that it takes 19-20 months for a youth to complete all Eagle Scout requirements, BSA National is willing to grant an extension past age 18 on request for any youth who joins in 2019.
Although the extension was created for girls, who may register as Scouts starting in February 2019, the extension is also available to boys who join in 2019.
