I have got to tell you that really rang the bell for me, but I have no good advice. I worked for a year to get the boys to design something appropriate and it never worked. Ours always seemed to be for rap musicians. I have to say we also saw many shirts at Philmont that even our scouts thought were inappropriate. They were mostly sexist or too machismo. I think Cooper's advice is good though, you have to keep trying. I can't see our boys wearing any at the high school in Alexandria, Virginia though. Dr. Bob's are nice, but they would not wear that over here. Perhaps if it were dark grey and said "Beat Duke."
