The Boy Scouts of America were recognized this week at the East Kentucky Miners vs Atlanta Krunk CBA basketball game in Pikeville. Interstate Natural Gas is recognizing different community organizations at every home game.It was pretty cool to walk out to center court in uniform. The crowd of 1,000 + even cheered!
I believe that the image of Scouting is changing here in the "Hills". Several folks have commented to me that they "didn't realize that Boy Scouts did so many fun things" like whitewater, snow skiing, rappelling, and all of the really cool road trips like England, Sea Base, Northern Tier, and Philmont.
Some local opinions of Scouting may vary.
Here, we are the group that youth want to join and people want to support.
