Welcome to the community forums at the Camp Cachalot Alumni Association!

If you have questions about the Association itself, please navigate on over to the main page at:

This posting is intended to provide new users with some guidelines as to the etiquette here on the forums. We encourage any and all discussion related to Camp Cachalot, the former Moby Dick Council, or any of their predecessor camps and councils, including Camp Noquochoke, Cachalot Council, Massasoit Council, or the old Fall River or New Bedford Councils. Please try to keep the discussions related to these topics. We are a small web site, with a decent amount but not inexhausitble disk space and resources, (in other words, we're not Google ) and there are numerous other places on the Internet for holding discussions not related to these topics. Also in keeping with the "not an infinite amount of disk space" theme, discussions with no activity will be deleted after a reasonable amount of time, usually 90 days but varying depending on the specific forum and our current resource utilization.

Remember that even though we are not an official site of the Boy Scouts of America, we are an organization largely of current and former Scouts, including youth members of the organization. As such, we will not tolerate profanity, vulgarity, or flamewars and posts containing such will be either edited, deleted, or have their threads closed to new posts. Frequent violators of this policy will be banned from posting. Our forum moderators may edit or delete any post at any time for any reason that they see fit, in keeping the site on-topic and in keeping with Scout Spirit. Rest assured that this will not be done lightly- our moderators will strive to take the least-severe action that addresses the issue, and will provide the reason for any editing or deleting of posts.

We're aware that there are several policies of the Boy Scouts of America considered controversial. This isn't the place to discuss them, and posts about them will be considered off-topic and deleted. If you have concerns about such policies, your comments would be better directed at the BSA itself.

Finally, let's try to keep it civil, folks. Leave the flamewars for other forums.
