In the LDS Church, Scout leaders often serve as youth ministers. At times we are called upon to do some of the most horrible, torturous things known to man...............like chaperon a dance.
The music is horrible. Where is the country music and the 80 music???
The kids don't dance. What is the point in coming???
The kids come to talk and hand out. No one will ask anyone to dance. Our DJ in our Stake is pretty good other than the lack of Brooks, Black, Shelton and various artists from the 80s. She begs them to dance. They just won't do it.
Last night 2 additional Stakes were invited and it is very clear our Stake doesn't have the same dress standards as others. My wife and I were shocked by the amount of leggings with nothing to cover them, tight dresses, tight jeans (leaving NOTHING to the imagination) and revealing clothes. If I sounds judgmental, it is because I am. Don't parents look at what they kids leave wearing? Good grief........
The ramblings of an ex BSA Varsity Team Coach on Scouting and specifically the Varsity program. My thoughts, ideas and concerns are in no way connected or shared in any form or fashion by the Boy Scouts of America or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) who volutold me to serve as a Varsity Coach. Some personal rambling too........... (I am an Assistant Scoutmaster now that the Varsity Program has been murdered........)
