On October 18, I am going to teach about amateur radio at a huge (over 1800 acres) Boy Scout camp about an hour west of me called Camp Davy Crockett. Thisis my first time doing this and I'm excited! I'll be going with two other
hams from my ham radio club.
I'd love to help them all get their ham radio license and earn their Radio activity badge.

That's interesting. I would wonder given the multiple ways kids have
to communicate these days, how many would be interested in that.
I'm sure you can do things with a ham radio that you can't do with
other means, so maybe that's a good thing to learn about..

I don't know enough about it to comment much. I was thinking about how
at some times when virtually all technology was down there were still
Ham users who could communicate with the rest of the world, which was
great, but if you are using a computer then you should also be able
to talk computer to computer in other ways..

Good plan.. I think that's required to teach kids Anything these days.. B)

No doubt, and I think the worst of that was usually done anonymously
one way or another. A lot of bullies don't want to confront people out
in the open.. More so in these days of 'electronics'. I think a lot
of kids become 'bullies' who would never confront someone in person.
