RUDDS63, Do you have any restrictions using hammocks with the Scouts? Privacy issues, buddy system, etc.
Looking to get my son's Troop started but want to avoid potential problems with BSA.

As long as there is a designated "spot" to change, both youth and adult, there should be no issues. I change on the backside of my tarp when with scouts. Backside being the side away from everyone else.
4 season tarps with doors accomplish the same thing.
Looks like you have been a good boy this year!
