"ÿ#"$ÿÿ%&''%ÿÿ#$&($)$%ÿ#ÿ FORWARD There's a cry rising in the hearts of men and women across this country. It comes from a deep place t hat recognizes there is a virtual war on boys. Pol it ica lly-correct messaging challenges thousands of years of biologically-evident differences between boys and girls. Any aware parent can tell you boys are different. Meanwhile, our social systems are designed for girls. The "sit down, be still, listen" demands of our organized gatherings suffocate the "wild at heart" strengths of a boy. We know boys come with their cha llenges. Proverbs 14:4 reminds us, "Where no oxen are, the trough is clean," and ministry to boys can be messy! But the rest of the verse says, " ... But much increase comes by the strength of an ox." Our sincere hope is that the principles, guidelines, and heart of the mission of Trail Life USA inspire you to let boys be boys. And that the operation of the program on a Troop level allows them to be all God created them to be ... strong (in spirit, soul, and body) as an ox. Wh ile we recogn ize rules, structure, and boundaries are essential to social interaction, we would pray you make room for the innate wildness and desire for adventure that is present in every boy. Parents love the character and leadership opportunities the Trail Life presents. Thank you, Leader, for making sure the adventure and fun keeps the boys coming back. µ-Walk Worthy, Mark Hancock, CEO Trail Life USA ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿ ÿÿÿÿ ÿ ÿ!

  • A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’S Historical Membership Patterns
    A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns BY Matthew Finn Hubbard Submitted to the graduate degree program in Geography and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert ____________________________ Dr. Terry Slocum ____________________________ Dr. Xingong Li Date Defended: 11/22/2016 The Thesis committee for Matthew Finn Hubbard Certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: A Cartographic Depiction and Exploration of the Boy Scouts of America’s Historical Membership Patterns ____________________________ Chairperson Dr. Stephen Egbert Date approved: (12/07/2016) ii Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to examine the historical membership patterns of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) on a regional and council scale. Using Annual Report data, maps were created to show membership patterns within the BSA’s 12 regions, and over 300 councils when available. The examination of maps reveals the membership impacts of internal and external policy changes upon the Boy Scouts of America. The maps also show how American cultural shifts have impacted the BSA. After reviewing this thesis, the reader should have a greater understanding of the creation, growth, dispersion, and eventual decline in membership of the Boy Scouts of America. Due to the popularity of the organization, and its long history, the reader may also glean some information about American culture in the 20th century as viewed through the lens of the BSA’s rise and fall in popularity. iii Table of Contents Author’s Preface ................................................................................................................pg.

It seems fitting that I would develop a dissertation topic on suntanning in sunny Santa Barbara, where students literally live at the beach. While at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), I have had the fortunate experience of learning from and working with several remarkable individuals. First and foremost, my advisor Bruce Robertson has been a model for successfully pursuing both academic and curatorial endeavors, and his encyclopedic knowledge has always steered me in the right direction. Laurie Monahan, whose thoughtful persistence attracted me to UCSB and whose passion for art history and teaching students has been inspiring.

  • Ernest Thompson Seton 1860-1946
    Ernest Thompson Seton 1860-1946 Ernest Thompson Seton was born in South Shields, Durham, England but emigrated to Toronto, Ontario with his family at the age of 6. His original name was Ernest Seton Thompson. He was the son of a ship builder who, having lost a significant amount of money left for Canada to try farming. Unsuccessful at that too, his father gained employment as an accountant. Macleod records that much of Ernest Thompson Seton 's imaginative life between the ages of ten and fifteen was centered in the wooded ravines at the edge of town, 'where he built a little cabin and spent long hours in nature study and Indian fantasy'. His father was overbearing and emotionally distant - and he tried to guide Seton away from his love of nature into more conventional career paths. He displayed a considerable talent for painting and illustration and gained a scholarship for the Royal Academy of Art in London. However, he was unable to complete the scholarship (in part through bad health). His daughter records that his first visit to the United States was in December 1883. Ernest Thompson Seton went to New York where met with many naturalists, ornithologists and writers. From then until the late 1880's he split his time between Carberry, Toronto and New York - becoming an established wildlife artist (Seton-Barber undated). In 1902 he wrote the first of a series of articles that began the Woodcraft movement (published in the Ladies Home Journal). The first article appeared in May, 1902. On the first day of July in 1902, he founded the Woodcraft Indians, when he invited a group of boys to camp at his estate in Connecticut and experimented with woodcraft and Indian-style camping.

Although it took a long time to hit my stride as a scholar, it was never because I doubted their emphasis on education or their insights into the world.

  • Active Leisure
    Chapter 7 Active Leisure College students dance away their spring break in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Photograph taken on March 20, 1962, by Ron Kuntz. Courtesy of UPI/Corbis-Bettmann. The major professional sports of baseball, football, basketball, and ice hockey achieved extraordinary growth in the last two decades of the century. Baseball was the dominant spectator sport during the first half of the century. The National Football League was founded in the 1920s but did not attract a signifi- cant following until after World War II. Professional basketball and ice hockey first acquired mass audiences in the 1950s. Baseball continued to draw the largest total attendance in the latter decades of the century, but football and basketball had larger per-game shares of the television audience. According to the NFL, eight of the ten most watched television programs ever were Super Bowl games. Professional football’s television revenues exceeded $1.2 billion in 1998, compared with about $600 million for basketball and about $300 million for baseball. The rising income from television commercials and steeply rising ticket prices enriched the players. As late as the 1960s, ordinary players in professional sports were not paid much more than ordinary blue-collar workers. After 1980, however, their pay climbed rapidly. The stars in professional sports, whose large salaries were supplemented by huge fees from product endorsements, had some of the highest incomes in the nation, albeit usually for a relatively brief period of time. Many team owners benefited similarly. The Washington Redskins franchise was sold in 1999, after a particularly dismal season, for more than half a billion dollars.

  • The Old Scout History of Scouting in the U.S.A. 105Th Anniversary: 2015
    The Old Scout History of Scouting in the U.S.A. 105th Anniversary: 2015 This brief history of the Scouting Movement is intended to give young scouts information about the early founders of Scouting and the rich traditions that make up the scouting program as they forge their own paths toward the rank of Eagle Scout. History of Scouting, Part III: Early American Founders – Ernest Thompson Seton Ernest Thompson Seton was born in England in 1860. He later moved to Canada then finally Connecticut. He was a writer, naturalist and artist. In 1902, he founded the Woodcraft Indians, a youth organization dedicated to the principles of American Indian life. He wrote a book called “The Birchbark Rolls of the Woodcraft Indians” which was a guide for his program. Seton actually sent his book to Robert Baden-Powell, and met with him in 1906 when Seton was in England for a series of lectures. Baden-Powell used many of Seton’s ideas in his first scouting handbook, “Scouting For Boys”. Because of this, Seton always considered that it was his ideas that became the foundation for the Boy Scout movement. After the Boy Scouts of America was formed in 1910, Seton folded his Woodcraft Indian organization in the Scouting Movement. Seton was very involved in the early years of the Boy Scouts of America, and wrote much of the first scout handbook used in the United States. Seton was an influential founder of the Boy Scouts of America. He resigned from Scouting by 1915 after disagreements with some of the early leaders.

Many of them have appeared in magazines or in the "Birch-Bark Roll" thait has come out annually for ten years. But this is the first time in which a comprehensive collection has been made of the activities, customs, laws, and amusements that have been developed in my camps. Some of the related subjects I have treated at too great length for enclosure in one book. Of this class are the "Life Histories of Northern Animals," "Animal Stories," "Sign Language" and "Forestry," which appear as separate works. All are merely parts of a scheme that I have always considered my life work, namely, the development or revival of Woodcraft as a schocrf for Manhood. By Woodcraft I mean outdoor life in its broadest sense and the plan has ever been with me since boyhood. Woodcraft is the first of all the sciences. It was Woodcraft that made man out of brutish material, and Woodcraft in its highest form may save him from decay.
