Cub Scouts for me. Wasn't much into it for some reason. Really liked the outdoors part of it and we made model racing cars out of blocks of wood. I won the several years in a row. Looking back not sure why didn't go on to boy scouts. But that's trying to remember things I am too old for anymore. I am 70 years old so it has been a while. I suspect it had something to do with girls and cars but not sure.

Re: Boy Scouts
Started with the Cub Scouts. Various women were the leaders, some better than others. We kind of followed whatever my older brother was into. We didn't have Boy Scouts in the immediate area, so went 4H route until half way thru high school. Actually finished high school/early college involved in Demolay.

Re: Boy Scouts
Actually I should have spelled it the following way: DeMolay. A young mans organization sponsored by the Masonic Lodge. They took as their namesake a man from France by the name of Jacques DeMolay who was burned at the stake after serving the church honorably in the Crusades. The King of France was the one who actually ordered him put to death for not revealing the names of some of his associates.
