Happy Anniversary |
9 days ago marked our 1 year anniversary. Then we started with 5 scouts and just a few adults. One year later we are up to 27 scouts and over the next few weeks I am guessing we be at 37 scouts!
What a fast and wonderful year it has been. We have accomplished so many merit badges, canoed over 20 miles, rode horses and even melted metal! While I do believe the past year has been great, I eagerly look forward to the next 12 months now that we are experienced.
While growing does have its challenges, change is good great. I eagerly look forward to the new scouts and leaders + watching the existing scouts excel in things like: Order of the Arrow and high adventure camping. We have even started to see the patrols, such as the Pyromaniacs, branch out to do their own thing and really show the rest of the troop what leadership is all about.
Happy to be at Troop 1978, Scoutmaster Kevin Saye
