By out of the box, I don't mean "meet with no uniforms and play basketball." I'd like to broaden the horizons for these kids, esp. with exposure to careers (not sure that many of them are on a college track).
Any ideas would be appreciated...

I hated scouting growing up. My scoutmaster was a nice guy, but a strict military man who was so focused on making us earn merit badges that he sucked the life out of scouting. I don't have any bright ideas about activities, but avoid scoutmaster qua taskmaster.
