If you can record it and give them a copy, this would be an incredible troop gift. A Custom Blanket to keep warm, whether they’re at home or camping. Email your troop and ask them to send you any good photos of the Scoutmaster they might have, alongside any group photos. You should try to get at least 10 photos showing different periods throughout the volunteer’s time with your troop.
Nearly 6,000 were moved out of the area to other, less impacted Border Patrol stations and processing centers, DHS said. The mediation, held Monday in an office at the firm's Goldsboro location, had proceeded for roughly six hours and was going well, said the person, who was not in the meeting but understood that Sanchez "seemed very satisfied with the numbers" being discussed. The main considerations are size, accessories and tent functionality. As for size, most people get a double for comfort not because they plan to buddy up. Hammocks that don’t come with everything for sleeping like tarp, insect netting and under-quilting can easily be added later. The perfect thing for these scouts is a hydration backpack with some storage.
Additional Programs
Thankfully the Nerf darts aren’t painful on impact and this is a fun toy to help a scout improve on his aim. A 12-year-old who sold more than $56,000 in popcorn through his Boy Scouts troop recently spent more than 20% of those earnings buying presents for children in foster care in his region of Minnesota, delivering one of the Christmas season’s most heartwarming stories. Inflatable sleeping pads are great for warm weather camping, they pack small, are super light but unless they're designed to fit inside the sleeping bag, they will sap heat when cold weather camping. For about the same price, a former den leader has designed this nifty version of lock blade and bundled it with an 11-function multi tool, fire starter, whistle and a tin to be converted into a first aid kit so this totally meets the “cool factor” for scouts. The knife even has a hole so it can attach to a keychain or lanyard making it especially hard to misplace. “We are going shopping to buy the Christmas presents for the foster care children and for the domestic violence shelter children,” the generous young man explained, noting his share of the award money will go toward those children.
A 30 degree rating is pack friendly and price friendly enough that often it’s cheaper to buy two and double them up than it is to get a bag rated a mere 15 degrees warmer. Camping overnight is a requirement shared by these ranks and a highlight of these years is the Whittling Chip aka the “license” to carry a pocketknife at camp. If your scout needs to cook with a kit, check out the MalloMe Camping Cookware Mess Kit for around $20.
Boys
While you can get socks just about anywhere, there’s few places to find official BSA socks. Roll out style kits are nice because not only do they instantly reveal their entire contents; in the wild they can double as a clean and sterile surface. If you’re getting one rain suit you want to last for multiple scouts, the PVC stuff is extremely durable. Be warned though it doesn’t breath well and can be heavy - but you’ll definitely get your $20 out of it. Thermarest sells chair rigging for their popular line of inflatable so your pad can also be your camp chair. Note the size of pad is a key factor in the chair rigging – too big or too small will not work.
Allison Holker shared a short tribute Wednesday for her late husband Stephen "tWitch" Boss. The "So You Think You Can Dance" alum and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" star was 40 years old. Jonathan made multiple hourlong shopping trips to purchase the Christmas gifts this year.
Decorative Throw Pillow Cover
I’ve heard some non-campers use the silk liners in hotel rooms instead of the hotel sheets because they’re just that comfortable. Liners are light, small, hygienic and are more useful than you’d think plus they can double the life expectancy of your sleeping bag. The Swiss Army Knife with all its tools is one of the coolest gifts to receive as a kid, but the experienced Scouter knows there are better and safer options. Around $50 and up and you get features like dimming, different colored night vision modes, better water-proofing and longer battery life.
It has long been considered that being an Eagle Scout is correlated with leadership potential and future success. Many famous personalities over the years, who have changed the course of history, have been Eagle Scouts in their youth. So, being in the ranks of such cultural giants is a huge achievement for such young people. Write a song for your Scoutmaster that your whole troop can perform.

I was a Girl Scout for several years growing up, always went to camp for a few weeks in the summer, and generally enjoyed the program. This nutcracker comes in the form of an adorable Eagle Scout, complete with a flag in its hand! The nutcracker is designed to withstand some serious shells, so feel free to test it out with any nut of your choice. Its small and compact size makes it ideal for decorative purposes and practical use as well. Made from premium materials, this nutcracker will stay around for a long time without fading colors or becoming less effective.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's trip to Washington is being treated as a mini state visit – one with extraordinary security implications, according to multiple sources familiar with the plans. Hundreds of law enforcement and intelligence officials have been activated and the U.S. Secret Service will be the lead agency as he heads to the White House and speaks to Congress Wednesday.
If you don’t want to do the research, The Black Diamond brand Storm 350 is a repeat Backpacker Magazine “best of” for several years. Some of these are for the kids, but we all know once a Scout, always a Scout. I know my husband and in-laws would love so many of these items for themselves.
Charlie just started his first year of scouts and is officially a Cub Scout now – a Tiger Scout more specifically. During a recent gift-wrapping party, Werner stood near some of the presents and said they were worth approximately $11,300. He has always been a determined worker, according to his mother, Serena Kolk, who said he is there when the store opens and when it shuts down for the night. A 12-year-old Boy Scout in Minnesota is working hard to bless children he does not know during the Christmas season. He said he eventually wants to buy presents for every foster child in Minnesota. Jonathan Werner used about $11,300 of that amount to buy presents for every child in foster care in four Minnesota counties.
The family of an 8-year-old boy who was shot and partially paralyzed in the Highland Park, Illinois, mass shooting is raising money for a new home as they spend their first holiday season together since the shooting. Keely Roberts, the mother of 8-year-old Cooper Roberts, shared in a new statement Monday that Cooper is moving through what she described as a "slow and difficult" recovery. Cooper was enjoying the 4th of July parade in his hometown of Highland Park with his parents and twin brother Luke when gunfire broke out and he was shot in the back. Capitol on Wednesday released the interview transcripts of 34 witnesses who were interviewed as part of the sprawling 17-month probe.
The bladder has a straw that attaches to the shoulder strap and is a steady reminder to drink water. Carrying water in this manner is way more comfortable and handy than a Nalgene bottle. Closed cell pads are a must for cold weather camping, are pretty light but are bulkier than their inflatable counterpart making them just slightly less pack friendly. Don’t get me wrong, the closed foam, lightweight pad is and always will be a great all weather camping option. On a hot summer campout, I like to sleep on top of my bag in my liner for that perfect combination of cushy underneath and comfy light blanket on top.
