How many Scouts and Scouters are on ScubaBoard (Boy Scouts)

[mmmeenehan]

I hope y'all are planning to help on scuba staff at the 2010 National Jamboree. I don't know the exact numbers, but the scuba activity at the past few Jambos has run about 25,000 - 30,000 Discover Scubas/ Scuba BSA during the Jamboree. Bob Tallent is always looking for staff.

mike is that you.

if you guys and gals can work on the scuba staff its the "coolest job" at the jamboree as the scuba staff has access to the most cool water on site. There are other perks of the position but you have to be there to understand.

i already have 2010 blocked off on my schedule for scuba staff and cant wait. I have already started working on the patch designs for 10 and the ideas are good i just now need to get out of paramedic school so i can work on the designs.

Currently Cubmaster and WEBELOS II Den Leader, will be in Boy Scouts next year. My son can not wait until he is old enough to get certified to scuba dive.

not sure if I count but a Eagle Scout have not been active in scouting in a few years due to work but now that we just had a son I will again one day.

i am just about to become an Eagle scout, i will have it by the end of the month, just need to meet with a few merit badge counselors (work already done). I wouldn't be diving without the scouts. i always thought it looked cool, but i my leader in scouts hooked everyone up with the dive shop so we could go "Try scuba" in a pool. i was hooked after that and love it.

Wow, someone opened up the thread!
Okay... I'm a Venture Crew Committee Member, Troop Assistant Scoutmaster, District committee member, and merit badge Councellor. My son is still in the Venture Crew, but is inactive (away in college). He made Eagle 2 years ago.

Our Venture Crew is a Scuba Diving Crew, and a Scuba School. We have been training divers (TMCA and SDI cert) for many years... in fact, our first instructor was Buster Crabbe, in 1968.

We have been displaced from our former home, and are currently located in the YMCA in White Plains, NY. Read our story, or just stop by to visit.. I try to keep some really useful information linked off the web site, most I which I first found right here on Scubaboard. Feel free to click around, and if any of you are new divers, use this as a reference. www.durlandscuba.org!.

One more thing... We had a booth at Beneath The Sea this year, and met quite a few of you! Nice people!!
