It caught my attention so I took the survey.<\/p>\n<p>Our troop has a policy that asks the boys to leave their mp3 players and cell phones at home when we have a troop activity, like a camping trip. The adults will usually have one cel phone along in case of an emergency, but we ask that they do not use it and set a good example for the boys. If our trip is a long distance from home, we do allow the boys to bring their mp3 players along, but we store them in the car once we arrive at camp. I have talked to several local Scouters who have a troop policy similar to this.<\/p>\n<p>I am curious as to what the results of Clark&#8217;s survey will be. I bet he will be sharing them on his blog and his podcast.
