[Bobwhite Blather] The dreaded data dump

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

There's a new item at Bobwhite Blather: 'The dreaded data dump'

You know the routine. It happens every month.

The committee gets together for the monthly committee meeting. The meeting gets
off to a late start because the chairman waits for stragglers (not a good idea,
and the subject of another article). The treasurer goes into great detail about
who has paid for camp and who hasn't, how much last month's groceries cost for
each patrol, and who owes what.

The advancement coordinator goes down the list of each advancement item that was
signed off, who earned merit badges last month and how many Scouts haven't
advanced in the last six, nine, or twelve months. (Or in a Cub Scout pack:
Johnny earned a belt loop. Jorge earned a belt loop. Rajiv earned a belt
loop....)

Then, someone joins the meeting late and everything gets repeated.
