Council Camporee - Back to our Heritage 1910

Photobucket
Our pack's display. We had to choose a state to research and display information from 1910. We chose Hawaii. Hawaii had a Boy Scout Troop in 1910. They were Troop 1 and are still active today. The first group of boys called themselves the "Rainbow Patrol". You can read more about them here.

Here you can see the tags (or "Passports"). The council included the siblings at this camporee and had plenty to go around. The children presented them at each activity station to get a sticker.

New Pack T-Shirts

Here is a peak at the new (and improved)Pack 401 t-shirts.


We wear these as our "Class B Uniform". It's not an official BSA term, but it's the best way to define their purpose. The boys wear these to outdoor events that don't require an official uniform. Sometimes, den leaders will plan a messy activity for the boys, and ask that the boys wear their "Class B" t-shirts to den meetings so they don't ruin their uniforms.

I'm very pleased with how these turned out. If you are a local organization and need t-shirts, you should contact:

Their prices were unbeatable, and their service was fantastic!
