    I went to Yawgoog 1982-1987. 10:10-10:20 I see my former troop behind the trumpet player (433 Middle Island, Long Island, NY). Really cool!!

      I'm terrible at remembering song lyrics; I can only manage a few lines, even from my favorite songs. But I have memories from Seaton - from 40 years ago. Creating good memories is a very important thing, isn't it?

      I had so much fun there, and my own boys got so much out of it, that after our troop went to H M Moses for a weekend trip, I had the idea to try to form a composite troop, that would visit three or four different scout camps each summer.

      Thank you, and yes it is, for kids and adults. We were able to go again last year, and will be back this summer. I consider this my most valuable video -- I want no credit for that -- rather, I had the opportunity to capture and share wonderful memories, and the video has been largely well received. It is the people on camera that make it special, I merely watched and strung it together.

    I have authored three books containing merit badge requirements. These books will assist the scout and merit badge counselor to achieve the desired merit badge. The books can be obtained on amazon or at the local library. They are WEATHER by Jack Fleming, GEOLOGY by Jack Fleming, and BEACHES (for the Oceanography badge) by Jack Fleming.

    • @haroldellis9721
      @haroldellis9721  2 роки тому

      Excellent. I am working on videos to support various merit badges; a video for each requirement, starting with Art and Wilderness Survival, and soon adding Game Design. This started during our remote Merit Badge College.
