All Scouts and Scouters in the North Florida Council

The funeral procession for Navy Captain Michel Scott Speicher will be this Friday, August 14th. We encourage Scouts/Volunteers to attend this event in support of Speicher's service as a Scout. Participation will include numerous Fire Fighters and Police from as far south as Miami, High School Junior ROTC units, and countless citizens of Jacksonville. BSA participation will further honor him, as he learned many of his outstanding character qualities as a Scout himself.

Participation in this event will give our Scouts a first-hand sense of citizenship, patriotism, honor and reverence, characteristics we hold in highest esteem within the Scout Law.

Scouts and adults from Troop 182 will be at the Veteran's Memorial Wall around 9:30 a.m.

2009 07 Summer Camp II - Camp Daniel Boone

Here's a collection of photos from Troop 182's 2009 Summer Camp Week up in the mountains of North Carolina taken by Hans.

The boys accomplished so much in terms of merit badges earned and Rock School for 3 senior scouts. Even cub scout Jacob did big boy stuff (BSA Swim test, canoeing, rafting, horseback riding, archery) with the troop. The 4 adult leaders had an easy time and camping was perfect!
