Yeah. My mum and dad were cub/beaver/scout/venture scout leaders over the
ears in rodley. When my dad died a few months back there were 40 year old
scouts there with their kids. I never realised what an effect he had on kids
lives but it seemed like a pain at the time giving up nights and weekends.
I think the demise in popularity of scouts over the years has had a
detrimental effect on society!
Totally with you on that one. (Cue lots of sarcy comments about old men in
shorts sleeping in tents with little boys.... :-) ).

No - I am not Akela , I am his assistant - cub name Bagheera (the cool
black panther for those of you who have seen the Jungle Book film) - at
3rd \ 1st Eccles Scout Group.
I used to do that too Dave when they boy Sean and his little brother were
cubs. I eventually had to become Akela when the guy who was doing it
suddenly packed in.
I gave it up when the youngest got too old, in favour of running the junior
cricket team in Addingham.
Happy days and folks like you do a lot to help bring up the yoof of today to
have a sense of right and wrong and cicvic duty etc. More strength to your
elbow :-)
