Wow, all things that *might* be an issue for us at any given time.
We're not much into activities, but DS8 did sign up for Cub Scouts this year -- he's been to a few meetings, off and on, but the meetings are kind of random and so is he, so it's more off than on and it doesn't seem to bother him one way or the other.
We have been considering 4H, and it's big around here, but we're not sure exactly for what.
I don't think they have the Lego thing here, although there was a one-day special thing a while back.
The Scripps Bee might be an important sticking-point, but as mentioned above, competitions are not everything in life. We'll have to see. I don't think we'll be worrying about high school classes until after next school year; so far I think next year will be wrapping up middle school math, unless he gets ambitious.
