sensei8 Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 The lack of karate in general doesn't bother me a bit; it is what it is. I'm still scratching my head at the "Normal do" statement because I was both a boy scout as well as a cub scout, and I don't remember doing a lot of the things listed on a normal basis. But I believe that that statement is speaking in general terms because many kids/scouts do many things listed below on a normal basis; I just didn't. Karate and baseball was at the top of my list of normality while I was growing up.Here is the link for "Unauthorized and Restricted Activities"...http://www.scouting.org/scoutsource/HealthandSafety/GSS/gss08.aspx#ePrograms that the scouts are involved in:ArtAstronomyChessCitizenshipCollectingCommunicatingComputersDisabilities AwarenessFamily TravelGeographyGeologyGood MannersHeritagesLanguage and CultureMap and CompassMathematicsMusicNutritionPet CarePhotographyReading and WritingScienceVideo GamesWeatherWildlife ConservationSports Programs that the scouts are involved in:ArcheryBB Gun ShootingBadmintonBaseballBasketballBicyclingBowlingFishingFlag FootballGolfGymnasticsHikingHockeyHorseback RidingIce SkatingKickballMarblesPhysical FitnessRoller SkatingSkateboardingSnow Ski and Board SportsSoccerSoftballSwimmingTable TennisTennisUltimateVolleyballNotice there's nothing mentioned about judo, aikido, or tai chi. **Proof is on the floor!!!
bushido_man96 Posted June 28, 2013 Posted June 28, 2013 I think what it boils down to is what they will allow to be done in "Scouting Related Events." So, no TKD demos at scouting events, I'm guessing. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
sensei8 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Posted June 29, 2013 Yeah, I don't see ANY type of MA demo that's not already approved by the Scouts. We don't have to like it, but at least we have to accept it for what it is; it's their org and not ours. **Proof is on the floor!!!
bushido_man96 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Yeah, but it would be nice to see some rationale. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com
