🎉 Congratulations to Scouting America Troop 599! 🎉
Troop 599 is the first Scouting America unit to officially adopt a campsite at Camp Oklawaha in the Gulf Stream Council this year!🌲⛺
Through hard work and dedication, the Scouts widened the campsite entry to accommodate a trailer—using only shovels, a pickaxe, loppers, and rakes. This impressive effort truly reflects the Scout spirit of service, teamwork, and conservation.
Camp Ranger Bill Molnar is thrilled with the results and extends his thanks to Troop 599 for setting the standard. He also encourages other units to step up and adopt a campsite, helping to preserve and improve Camp Oklawaha for all Scouts to enjoy.
Well done, Troop 599—your leadership and service are making a lasting impact! 👏⚜️
