Boy Scouts

Because they are boys and they have different parts from girls

Service projects that can be done by an Eagle Scout include almost anything that is not a chore or a one-off fundraiser. For instance, creating a garden can be a project but weeding a school lawn may not.

Yes, Walt Disney was a registered Boy Scout, in Kansas City, in 1914/1915, before moving to Chicago, and he reached the rank of Tenderfoot.

Additionally. Mr Disney was a strong supporter of Scouting, not only in the USA but also across the world. A number of sketches and artwork was created with Scouting themes, the most famous, the Mickey Mouse Scout on the 1947 World Jamboree Newspaper. The artwork is stunning, and now the World Jamboree newspapers prints are quite rare and valuable.

The original artwork was used, with permission from Disney Corporation, in 2007 for the "Art of Scouting" Tour at Gilwell Park, London, in celebrating the 100th Anniversary of Scouting worldwide. The Art Tour was visited by over 50,000 scouts/visitors in 10 days that summer. The original 1947 painting is owned by the U.K. Scout Association, residing with the archives.

It's called the Snow Sports merit badge now that you can earn it in either skiing or snowboarding.

The highest award of Cub Scouting is the Arrow of Light badge. It is a small (approx 2" wide x 3/8" high) cloth badge with a tan background, blue border, and a gold arrow pointing to the right (as viewed from the front) under a partial gold sun orb with 7 rays that is worn on both the Cub Scout and the Boy Scout uniform. The individual elements of the badge represents: - The sun shedding its light on all that we do. A reminder that Cub Scouts should be a light for those around them. - The seven rays of the sun representing the seven days of the week. A reminder that Cub Scouts should do their best every day. - The arrow which is symbolic of everything which is straight and true. Just as Cub Scouts should be straight and true in their lives. It also points forward to the trail of Boy Scouting ranks and higher challenges. The arrow of light is much more difficult to obtain than a belt loop, an activity badge or even one of the other rank patch. To obtain this award these scouts have met a number of requirements, including completion of eight activity badges, participation in camps, hikes and boy scout activities, the memorization of the Scout Oath and the Scout Law, and the commitment to live by these principles. The ceremony is in essence a 'coming of age' ceremony symbolizing that Cub Scouts are now ready to become Boy Scouts.

A lot of this depends on the skill levels of the person using the tools. You see, the tools you use in building a Pinewood Derby car can vary greatly depending on the amount of time you have to spend on the car, the design you wish to accomplish with the car, and what tools you have available to you. The basic instructions with the kit recommends using a coping saw to cut the block, a wood rasp to shape the block, and a hammer to tap the wheels and axles (nails) in with. They also recommend mounting the block in a vise or clamp before using these tools. I also find that a wood chisel and a back saw/mitre box work well in combination with the basic tools.

All of these tool work with creating a Pinewood Derby car, but if you are looking for a faster and more accurate way of creating your Pinewood Derby car, power tools are usually a better way to go. Some good power tools to use are band saws, scroll saws, drill presses, bench sanders, and a hand held motor tool (such as a Dremel). All of these tools require a degree of skill to work with and proper safety devices (such as goggles) should be used at all times. Remember, a child should never be allowed to use any of these tools on their own and adult supervision/intervention is always a must.
