With a heavy heart, we wanted to share the news about a passing of one of our own.

Mark Pishon, who formerly served as an Assistant Scoutmaster, Committee Chair, and Fundraising Chair for Troop 358 has passed away.

Mr. Pishon had a lasting impact during his years of service to Troop 358. He improved the financial structure in ways that made high adventure trips possible for more scouts, ensured ample funding for the Troop, created emergency funds, and Troop 358’s Eagle Scout scholarship. He was at the forefront of events like Evasion Weekend and the Hogroast. He was a mentor both to Scouts and to other adults in the troop. He would often encourage adults to take on leadership positions.

He had a deep love for Scouting and Troop 358. He made a difference and had a lasting impact on our Troop and he will be missed.

After a successful Firecraftee Campfire in camp by one of our scouts and after just going over emergency procedures for weather, we got to put those plans into action! The scouts performed admirably and got everyone accounted for and headed to the Inlow tornado shelter with half the camp (about 400 people). We spent 4.5-5 hrs in the bathroom hallways in the basement with Troop 69 out of Trader's Point. It was hot and tight quarters. Our scouts did trivia, played cards, tried to sleep, and, with Troop 69, ran the bathroom lines for all the 400 people sheltering.

We came back to a muddy raccoon ransacked campsite after 1:30am. But, the tents were in decent order. We did a quick clean up and put everything back in the trailer and headed to bed. Before 3am.

We are Alive, Awake, Alert, Ethusiastic 😵‍💫🥱 this morning, the sun is out, and we are back to regular program.

Huge shout out to the Ransburg Staff who were well prepared and organized and kept us all safe and hydrated in the longest shelter-in-place event in Ransburg's History on the actual 60 year Anniversary of Ransburg's founding.

Today, Troop 358 went down for our annual tradition of setting up chairs for the Indy 500 parade. It turned out to be a great day. The kids always set up chairs, and then head to the Rocket Fizz Candy shop and Enzo Pizza place before watching the parade.
