A shorter podcast recorded while preparing for a council training event, covering practical steps for the upcoming scouting year including parents meetings and upcoming interviews with long-time blog readers.

Recorded while at Algonquin Provincial Park in Ontario, Clark Green wraps up the troop meetings series with Baden-Powell’s century-old advice about trusting patrol leaders and concludes the four-part series on planning the future of your Scout unit. Includes a Scoutmaster’s Minute.

Clark Green continues the troop meetings series, using the story of a painter’s chaotic-looking studio as a metaphor for the productive disorder of a well-run Scout meeting—where what looks like a mess is actually Scouts learning. Also continues the series on planning the future of your unit.
