Concurrent with my service to Scouting, I have been an avid collector of Scouting memorabilia with a particular interest in commissioner insignia. Over the years, I've acquired some information on the history of commissioner service and some documentation on various areas of commissioner insignia, but have not found a single document which covers both the historical aspects of such insignia while describing and identifying all the commissioner insignia in all program areas - Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Exploring, Venturing, and the various roundtables. This project does that and provides a pictorial identification guide to all the insignia as well as other uniform badges that recognize commissioners for tenure or service.

  • 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.

  • Learning from the Past, Facing the Future the Boy Scouts, USA
    CASE STUDY 6Learning from the Past, Facing the Future The Boy Scouts, USA Where is there a boy to whom the call of the wild and the open road does not appeal? ~ Robert Baden-Powell A man’s usefulness depends upon his living up to his ideals insofar as he can. It is hard to fail but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune make for a finer, nobler type of manhood. ~ Theodore Roosevelt 86 Mention the phrase “character-forming institution” to an American male of a certain generation, and chances are high he will invoke the Boy Scouts. The most popular youth movement in American history, the Scouts became the preeminent virtue-building organization of the twentieth century, influ- encing a web of other civic institutions. More than 105 million boys have participated in the program, including disproportionate numbers of leaders. To this day, the Boy Scouts remain an icon of the sort of citizen that once made America exceptional and proud. But times have changed, for better and for worse. As this is writ- ten, the Boy Scouts of America is considering filing for bankruptcy. The organization has been tossed about by cultural waves, the most recent relating to changing norms around gender and sexuality. The brand car- ries baggage. Functionally, Scouting has been damaged by declines in volunteering and community activity, the shifting structure of modern families, conflicting messages around basic notions of masculinity, and pervasive cultural swells toward self-advancement, away from character and community.

  • Tent Usage in the Queensland Scout Section Issue
    TENT USAGE IN THE QUEENSLAND SCOUT SECTION ISSUE The value of the Qld Ridge Tent v the Bell Tent v the Dome Tent CONSULTATION PROCESS In gathering this information the following personnel were consulted: Assistant Region Commissioners Scouts; Region Leaders Scouts; District Scout Leaders; Experienced Scout Section Leaders; Current and former Branch Commissioners Scouts; Branch Advisor Scouts; Training Team Leaders and Jamboree Contingent Leaders. CONSULTATION PROCESS The following questions were put to the Leaders. Comments were emailed to the Branch Commissioner Scouts as well as most of those involved in the process. A discussion then took place at the Branch Scouters’ Council in October. * Does the Ridge Tent still have a place in our program? * Should Groups raise their own money to buy the Ridge Tents or should they be able to seek financial support to do so? * Should a supply of the Ridge Tents still be kept for tent pitching competitions? * Should the Ridge Tent be the recognised standard and the Bell Tent and the nylon Dome Tents be used for major events only? THE QUEENSLAND RIDGE TENT (Also known historically as a Queenslander or Jamboree Tent) THE QUEENSLAND RIDGE TENT (Discussion Outcomes) Positives * Erecting these tents provides an opportunity for the whole patrol to work together. Scouts learn to work as a team. It is beneficial for Patrol bonding and is one of the best sources of training in team work. The erection of the ridge tent is a basic scouting skill. * The Ridge Tent has been a staple of Scouting in Australia for generations. It is a traditional element of our program.
