farmteam Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 That's very sad. I used to be a Boy Scout, never went to the National Jamboree though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 A few boys from my Troop are out there, not part of that contingent. I'm packing my son up for a 2 week backpacking trip at Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. Scary stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
