If you read my blog on Scouting for Food, you know I love being a Tiger Cub leader. This week, my son and I visited the Boy Scout Museum. Did you know we even had one in Milwaukee? I didn't and it's fabulous. Once of the biggest Scout museums in the country, the exhibits include collections of old Cub and Boy Scout uniforms (for boys and leaders), scout handbooks over the years, patches, badges and a general history of scouting. This is a great place to go with dad, granddad and any scout or non-scout to learn about the history of boy scouting. The scout store is in the same building and it was worth the hour visit. If you have a little cub scout or plan to sign your son up for scouting, I recommend a visit! Here's the link... http://www.milwaukeeboyscouts.org/site/c.huLSJ6MUKxH/b.1171367/k.BEDE/Home.htm
