Overview

This book is a unique look at almost a half century of Scouting. Formerly called Boy Scouts of America, the new name is all inclusive Scouts of America. I started this Troop in 1977 and continue to serve as the Scouting Coordinator for our Church. A lot of changes occurred since 1977, we now have 105 Eagle Scouts, and are currently very active in the community. The book is dedicated to Ralph Anderson one of my favorite Eagle Scouts who passed away several years ago. Ken was born in 1948 in Newport News Virginia and was raised in Nitro West Virginia.
