| 4-H Shooting Sports Instructor  |
I am biased because I have been a leader for 43 years. But 4-H is a great organization. We have a great shooting sports program but we like the kids to be 10 at least. But there are a lot of beginner programs, they can do gun safety once they are 8 and 3rd grade. _______________________________ 'The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but > because he loves what is behind him.'

OK...cancel the pole dancers, keg, and Civil Air Patrol.  Hope you find something he can really like!!"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Royal rangers all the way. I was a commander for 18 years and both my boys were raised in it. It was the best. Oh, and I was a Boy Scout growing up but Rangers was a much better experience. | |||

Have you considered the National Guard Explorers? I was paid $7.54/HR to go into harm's way so you didn't have to. | |||

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I hadn't heard of some of these groups, though many are for older kids. I'll look a little more into the scout troop at his school and definitely going to check out the Trail Life group. As he gets older he can have more input into which group he wants to join, but for now that's my job. | |||

I was also a Royal Ranger. It was a very positive experience. We got to go to the National Camporama in 1982. | |||
