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!
