The Latest

Scouts, leaders and parents thanked Markus S for being a very active part of our Troop for the past several years and wished him a fond farewell on his return home to Germany. As remembrances, Markus was given a wonderful plaque featuring our Troop neckerchief and signed by Scouts and leaders. He also received a photo album containing snapshots of him in many of our activities. Markus will be remembered by our Troop has having been an inspiring role model to our Scouts. He exemplifies the Scout Oath and Law in practice. Good luck Markus and we all hope that our paths will cross again!
