I don't know if this would really fit here or not, but what I always wanted to do when I was in the pack (but never got around to it) was something along the lines of “A Heritage of Scouting”, or something like that. Have different uniforms throughout the years (most of which are on eBay or with people in the pack). And have books throughout the years (they are all on eBay, real cheap). And if I could find them, pictures of Scout activities throughout the years (this one might have been a tough one, though). I wanted to lay these out in chronological order to show how Scouting has changed over time.

I also thought it would be a great idea to invite people of different ages to be there and talk about their Scouting experience, so it would be a living museum.

I wanted to do this to show that Scouting is something that isn't just a youth activity, it's something that is handed down from generation to generation. For me personally, my dad was a Cub Scout, I was a Cub Scout, and both of my sons were Cub Scouts. I thought it would be a great idea to show this.
