    Thumbs up

    You are correct about the wood badge program part, but anyone can wear the tartan. I guess you might get in trouble for wearing the scout uniform with the kilt though.

    I always thought it funny that my father, who went through Wood Badge never knew that his mother's family was a sept of clan Maclaren.

    Still, wear the MacLaren tartan with pride, as we are proud of our connection with scouting!

    Well, I'm 18 now and just waiting on my Eagle Board of Review, so there's not much really that they can do to me.

    In any case, my scoutmaster gave me permission to wear it if I so desired, so I guess I have to at some point. How terrible
