| - | ====== Use of Electronic Devices ====== | ||
| - | Our modern society is driven by technology that seems to be ever present in our lives: from | ||
| - | social media, to smart phones, personal computers, to other tablet type devices, it’s all around. | ||
| - | Organization members and leaders have an obligation to be aware of any electronic imaging | ||
| - | and or recording device(s) present during OSG sanctioned events. It is inappropriate for | ||
| - | anyone to use such devices to record sound or images during any activity in areas where there | ||
| - | is an expectation of privacy, such as restrooms, portable outdoor restrooms, showers, inside | ||
| - | tents, and other areas where normal privacy would be observed. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If a scout or their family insist on the scout being “connected” electronically, | ||
| - | leader to either (a) collect and occasionally monitor the scout’s devices (for incoming parent | ||
| - | messages) and/or (b) collect devices and allow scouts to contact their family on a prearranged | ||
| - | schedule. Better yet, many groups adopt a policy of not allowing digital devices on campouts | ||
| - | or at activities. Leaders can inform parents that in keeping with traditional scouting values, | ||
| - | technological items should not be left at home, with adults able to notify parents in case of an | ||
| - | emergency. | ||
