Online training for Boy Scouts of America is now easier than ever. All you need is an email address and a web browser that is flash enabled. You can download flash from Adobe's website. If you are a registered Scout or Scouter (leader) than you should also provider your member id. If you don't have it, you can still take the training, but it will not be trackable by BSA which is a requirement for Charter Renewal.
Please proceed using the instructions below.
The following is an opening and closing flag ceremony that a Pack might do for a Pack Meeting:
KRASNOYARSK, Russia (CNN) -- "It kept you alive," a tearful Dwight Griffith told his adopted son as the two looked at an infant incubator during a tour of the Russian hospital where he was born.
Alex Griffith, 16, raised more than $60,000 for a new playground at the Russian hospital where he was born.
More than a decade after L.S. Berzon City Clinical Hospital No. 20 cared for him, 16-year-old Alex Griffith wanted to show his gratitude.
"Russia is part of me and this hospital is part of me. They gave me life, so I [wanted] to give back to them, to give them a fun place to play," said Alex, who lives in Forest Hill, Maryland.
As part of a Boy Scout project, Alex donated hundreds of hours and raised tens of thousands of dollars to build a new playground for the hospital.
Alex -- originally named Sergey -- was abandoned by his parents shortly after he was born at the hospital in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk. He weighed less than 2 pounds and doctors said he had a mild case of cerebral palsy.
His condition improved slightly over the next 11 months, when Dwight and Jenny Griffith adopted him.
This is a potluck iftar, with each different group assigned to bring something.
CUB SCOUTS are assigned to bring Pizza. We are ordering pizza collectivelly to get a better deal and less work for everyone, so each Cub Scout family should bring $10 rather than pizza.
Please bring prayer rugs and/or sheets/blankets (bring extras)

A Long Island teenager has earned all 121 merit badges offered by the Boy Scouts of America. It's an accomplishment the local arm of the organization calls "an almost unheard-of feat." Oceanside resident Shawn Goldsmith earned his final badge — for bugling — in time for his 18th birthday in November. He far surpassed the 21 badges required to achieve the elite rank of Eagle Scout.
Special Programs and Activities Held for Scouts on November 1, 2008
MOUNT VERNON, Va. – Historic Mount Vernon welcomes all Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Camp Fire Club members (in uniform or wearing an official pin) to FREE admission during its Scouting Days program beginning November 1, 2008 through February 15, 2009.
On Saturday, November 1, Mount Vernon kicks off the Scouting Days program with special activities for Scouts from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Scouts have an opportunity to earn merit badges through projects and stations set up with professional surveyors, Mount Vernon archaeologists, woodworking projects, and cooking demonstrations. In addition to these activities, Scouts are encouraged to make their own wreath to lay at the tomb of George Washington (by reservation only).
It appears as though the U.S. might live up to its "melting pot" moniker, as many Muslim girls have joined the American Girl Scouts. Priya David reports from Minnesota.
Achievement of 11 Teens Is Called Unprecedented

The boys called themselves the Viking Patrol. The scoutmasters called them babies.
As Cub Scouts, they were so wild that the exasperated leaders insisted that their parents attend the meetings to keep things from getting out of hand. Their first hike as Boy Scouts became notable for the "strike" when the boys lay down side by side on an easy trail and refused to go on after having covered about the length of the Mall.
