    Ditto. Actually, I'm not currently registered, so it's a moot point. However, apart from the Scout uniform, I'm looking forward to getting a MacLaren tartan kilt for the same reason as stated above. As a proud grandfather, I hope to have some occasion to attend some Scout ceremonies in the future. Although I wouldn't be wearing a Scout uniform, I could certainly wear the MacLaren kilt. Even though not currently registered I believe that I can still wear my Silver Beaver with civilian clothes when attending official functions. (I have a feeling that I could be quickly registered, if I wanted.)

    Our oldest son is an Eagle Scout, now a Cubmaster for his son's Pack, and a council member of the Northern Lights Council.

    Your local council, district or unit would love to have you register and become active again. You don't have to have a son in Scouts to be a Scouter - I know lots of folks like that - in fact about a fourth of our Roundtable have no children in Scouting. And yes, you can wear your Silver Beaver with civilian clothes at a Scout function.

    I actually have been active a Scouter after our sons were out of Scouting. It was a change of jobs, location, lifestyle, etc., that changed my Scouting activity. The President of the Grand Canyon Council is a friend of mine, so it wouldn't be difficult to get connected again.
