Scoutmaster Podcast 272

Opening joke about a new Scouter who misunderstood 'two liters deep' from training, thinking he needed to bury soda a foot underground. Credit goes to Steve Jackson, Venture Crew 84, Roland, Missouri.

Listener mail from Dominic Carrigliano (32-year scouting veteran returning to the program in Florida), Steve Jackson (Centurion Club member who listened to first 100 episodes on a road trip), Philip from Houston (UK transplant seeking involvement), and Eric from Troop 33 in Laurel, Maryland. Clarke also promotes the backer program and previews the email Q&A format for the episode.

Three email questions answered: Bill Chapman (Troop 736, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA) on rowdy troop meetings and whether chaos means something is broken; an anonymous Scoutmaster on what to do after accidentally crediting a Scout with a position of responsibility that didn't qualify for rank; and Danny (Troop 41) on Scouts who 'eagle out' and whether Eagle rank can be made more meaningful.
