Podcast Topic(s)

Ken is joined again by Regan, the Area Support Manager (ASM) for Scouts Canada's Northern Lights Council (which covers northern Alberta and the Northwest Territories), this time to discuss some of the myths and misconceptions about Scouts — and Scouting in Canada — that have cropped up over the years.

And a Correction: The Scouts Canada wiki disclaims its content thusly: “This is not a site of official Scouts Canada information, rather it is a resource containing both official and member-contributed materials...This is not a definitive source of information for Scouts Canada programs, but is provided to help those who deliver them.” We didn't reference this in the episode, and instead interpreted the wiki as being a de facto official source.

Shout-Outs

The team of volunteers who graciously put in the time to upgrade the docks at the Camp Woods waterfront.
