In my 3+ years as scoutmaster, I've never had to cancel a campout because of lack of adult leadership.
That's something I am proud of. And I did get a lot of help to make that happen, because it takes two adults.
Ironically, I did cancel a campout because of lack of scout participation. For one campout, no scouts showed up. Zilch.
So if a scout leader approaches you and asks if you can attend, remember, it means a lot to him if you say yes. He is sacrificing his time and effort, and he needs help to make it happen.
