I am an Eagle scout like porsche4life so I am a bit biased, but I think scouting is great. It is absolutely true that your son's experience is going to depend on the pack/troop leadership... Which is a good reason for you to get involved.
My troop was great, a truly "boy run" troop where the adults were there to enable, but the boys led. We camped once per month, year round, and did 50 miler backpacking trips etc. I think this is critical, no point in learning all of these skills if you are not out using them.
If you were not a scout or don't feel like you have "scouting skills" that is all the more reason for you to become part of the organization to help shape the experience for your son. Try it out, you might like it!
