I have a colleague who thought this entire issue was no big deal as he had involved his sons. Last I spoke with him, his son's troupe was not only having a sudden drop in membership AND retention, they also have a major problem in fund raising. (ala girl scout sawdust cookies)

The sad part is he blames the parents who are protecting their sons from the high risk of abuse now in the scouts.

I will say that the Boy Scout fundraising stinks. People will shell out 4 or 5 bucks for cookies on a whim.

20 bucks for popcorn is a purchase to be considered. Fooish to make it so pricey.
