Scouting America is pro-America, not pro-any-party, and election season is when that line gets tested.

Today's OnScouting answers common questions about uniformed Scouts and Scouters at political events, such as whether a color guard can present the colors at a rally (yes, but they must leave right after the Pledge of Allegiance), what to do about parades, and whether it’s okay to pose for photos with candidates. It also explains why the policy exists, which is to keep the Scouting brand from being used to suggest support for any candidate or ideology, and it reminds adult leaders and Venturers who are old enough that they should vote, just not in uniform.

Whether you lead a pack, troop, post, ship, or crew, it’s worth a read before your unit takes part in any event this election season.

It’s all part of the process with a boy led troop.

You already know what time it is …

In T61 we practice knot ties about once a month. With practice comes perfection and confidence.

Follow along for other life skills. Better yet, join us in person for a Monday night meeting.
