I would be very much in favour of such an amendment. Scouting is a
worldwide co-ed movement. In some countries it is segregated by
gender. We only have half of Scouting represented.
I say put thelegislation forward, hopefully it passes. What the GSUSA
decides to do with it is up to them. But whenever the decide they are
finally ready...we will be there for them.
In brotherhood & scouting,
