I had three sons who were Boy Scouts, now in their 20s. My oldest (who stuck with BSA the longest) credits his BSA training for being a pro at camping at music festivals, lol.

He gets there early, sets up the site, and his non-BSA buddies show up way late, grateful someone knows what to do and how to camp.

My son also brings a shovel to the beaches that allow driving right on the sand and has dug out many people who didn’t deflate their tires enough.

He is an expert camper—his Troop didn’t even use tents—only tarps (he hates those now though).

I’m going to forward him this article; great yes to hear something about BSA other than sex offenses and wokeness.

The sex offenses could be why they switched to tarps....
