Last I heard - right now this is a non-starter with the BSA. I figure they are going to keep it that way for the time being. I’m a Scout Master - and likely will quite the organization. If they are willing to change their values on this - then they are willing to devalue other aspects of the organization too, like the Eagle award.

SM here as well.

They would have to redefine the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.

If the BSA did cave on this, our Troop would probably fold. In addition to the many church sponsored/affiliated Troops as well.

I will not endorse, support or participate in any organization that allows Scouts to become prey for queers.

I’m glad our son is on the cusp of earning his Eagle Award. Just completed his Eagle project, 2 MB’s and BoR left.

P.S. I saw in another thread you were at EB this summer. Which week? Our Troop went there week 4. Took lots of pics of the USS Iowa on the way out.
