Not sure who is the webmaster for the list these days.  But, I think somebody has hacked into Scott Andrews Rhodes22-list account.

Can you get it from any store around you for me? I'll reimburse you once i return. Please let me know if you can handle this so I can tell you the amount and how to get them to me.

We haven’t car pooled to events in a year and a half.  I thought the Chemistry merit badge via Zoom.  Although it’s far from ideal, we’ve managed to hold onto youth and even recruited a few new youth.  Maybe, there aren’t too many other alternatives for youth.

Next weekend, my Boy Scout Troop is going on a weekend camping/paddling trip to Cooke Dam Pond ( i.e. the lake created by Cooke Dam on the Au Sable River) in the NE lower peninsula.  We have 4 new crossover Webelos Scouts that can’t swim very well yet.  So, we can’t just turn them loose in a canoe or kayak.  In order to give them a paddling experience, I plan to put these 4 Webelos in PFD’s with canoe paddles, one in each corner, sitting on the inflation tubes of my RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat).  I will sit on the seat in the middle with my rowing oars.  With 5 of us paddling, we should have no trouble keeping up.  Although, it may be tough to go in a straight line until we learn to work together!  The RIB is rated at > 1400 lbs load.  With all the floatation around the perimeter, the RIB is so stable; that, it’s almost impossible to flip over.  Plus, we have the Honda outboard if things go crooked.  I will, of course, have a rescue throw bag.
