It really is frustrating at times... but we, for the most part, understand the necessity of the constantly shifting regulations.

I have heard quite a few leaders fight and argue against the new "constraints"... and have actually gone toe-to-toe with one or two of them. Usually those who either 1-aren't going to abide by them anyways, or 2- suddenly have to cram something in because they've got a trip planned in a month or so.

I try very hard to just take it in stride and go with the flow. If I wanted to take my Scouts someplace where I didn't have to worry about anything.... I'd take them to the movies... wink

Oh... and regarding the cannons and mortars... please refer to Chapter VIII of the Guide to Safe Scouting...
