cub

I spent the day today with my oldest son at a Cub Scout Day Camp. Probably the only time in his life he will shoot a gun (a one-shot BB gun) or a bow & arrow. He tried to reason with me..."We have to get a BB gun and a bow and arrow, Dad!" "Why?" "So I can get better!"

I have reservations about cub scouting (I was a scout and had less than pleasant experiences...my brother was a scout and had a great time, going all the way to Eagle Scout), but as long as my son is enjoying it, we'll keep it up. I think that a lot depends on the leaders and how well they do keeping it interesting.
