100th Anniversary Scout Reunion Scheduled for August 14

Make plans now to bring your family to the 100th Anniversary Scout Reunion on Saturday, August 14th from 10am to 4pm at Memorial Stadium on Skidaway Avenue, near Montgomery Crossroads.

Scouting alumni include not only former Scouts, but also the supportive family members, dedicated volunteers and professionals, community leaders, and countless others who helped make Scouting all it has been in communities throughout America for the past 100 years, so everyone who has been involved in Scouting is welcome!

The 100th Anniversary Celebration is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to raise awareness of the value of Scouting, engage more youth and volunteers in Scouting activities, and reconnect millions of Scouting alumni across the country. Even if you are unable to make it to the Scout Reunion on August 14th, you can still reconnect with scouts from our area, as well as throughout the country! Through the on-line community, BSA Alumni Connection, the Boy Scouts of America invites our estimated 50 million Scouting alumni to make new connections and take an active role in Scouting programs again. Register on line at www.BSAalumni.org search for Scouting friends, and upload photos and stories onto the100th Anniversary Online Scrapbook. You can even earn a patch!

The Scout slogan, “Do a Good Turn Daily” stems from the origins of scouting in America.

In 1909, a Chicago publisher named William Boyce got lost in the London fog. A young boy helped him find his way, but wouldn’t take the shilling Boyce offered. He said, “Scouts don’t take payment for doing a good turn.”

Boyce had never heard of Scouts, but he was so intrigued that he learned all about the British program, then came home and helped create the Boy Scouts of America.

For 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America has created a strong foundation of leadership, service, and community for millions of America’s youth.

The Coastal Empire Boy Scout Council celebrates this legacy as it reaffirms its commitment to inspire and prepare future generations of leaders right here in our area. Since this event is a reunion, we invite everyone who has been involved in Scouting to join us on August 14th, regardless of when and where they were in Scouting.

All active Boy Scout units are encouraged to register now for the weekendlong events planned just for you on August 13th-15th by calling 912-927-7272 or visiting our website at www.bsasavannah.org. Second African Baptist Church
