Camp McKee in 2020

 What should have been one of the greatest 60th Anniversary celebrations did not actually happen.

Due to the Covid virus, 2 weeks of Summer Camp were held "virtually" online.  The experience was good, but nothing beats a real week at Camp McKee.

15 Years

Proud of our past.  Thankful for our current members 
and the future.

The Hillwigs

Congratulations and "Thank You" to Bob and Kathy Hillwig for their years of service to Troop 12, the First Presbyterian Church, and the Boy Scouts of America.

These showed up on eBay today.  The same seller is doing a bunch of B.S.A. really good stuff.  

If they don't look right, then don't "bite".

 

The seller does mention "NOT original".

3 O'Clock Ice Cream

Over the years, one of my favorite things to do is to buy fellow leaders and Staff members an ice cream, dippin' dots, or other cool treats from the Trading Post, exactly at 3:00 pm according to "my" watch.  During the hottest time of the day, we gather, wait with anticipation, go in and select a choice, and go back out and fellowship with each other and enjoy.  There have been conspirators over the years, that sneak in before hand and anonymously buy an ice cream for me.  That is nice and very Scout like.

3 o'clock ice cream:  It is a small way to say "Thanks", but to be totally honest, I just like eating ice cream with my friends!
