And they’re off!!!

Troop 12 is off to summer camp for a week of fun outdoor adventures! Fresh air, pool and lake swimming, merit badge activities, working on rank advancement, deepening friendships and making new friends.

We always enjoy measuring the amount of dirt they come with. More dirt usually equals more good times! 🙂

This past Memorial Day weekend, Scouts from Troop 12 placed flags on veteran headstones at Resthaven Memorial Gardens and Grandview cemeteries in Fort Collins to honor the brave warriors who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for our great nation.

Ot is an honor to be affiliated with our partner organization, the VFW Post 1781 and learn more about our military branches and the brave men and women in our community.

Thank you to our heros for your service to our nation.

We love hearing the many ways in which Scouting prepares people for life.

On May 8, alum Levi Lynn was aboard the aircraft involved in the runway accident at Denver airport, where the plane struck an individual on the runway, triggering an engine fire that forced passengers to evacuate via emergency slides.

Amid the confusion and smoke-filled cabin, Levi safely exited the aircraft but then turned around to help other passengers as they came down the emergency slide.

When interviewed afterward by local media, Levi explained that his ability to remain calm during the emergency came from his Emergency Preparedness training and experiences as an Eagle Scout.

Scouting instills leadership, preparedness, service, and the confidence to step forward in difficult moments. In a situation where many people understandably focused on their own safety, Levi’s instinct was to help others.

Preparedness matters. Training matters. Character matters.

Thanks, Levi, for being prepared, and thank you to all the adult Scouting volunteers who helped prepare Levi.
