Jamboree on the Trail LII of C of #100DaysofScouting

I missed this outing last year by mistake.   I already know that Elliot and many of the boys have AA Baseball.  I will be on the 2nd weekend of Wood Badge, so hopefully I can get the boys out on the trail while I am on course!  The one thing that I realized is that this counts as a JAMBOREE for the International Award Patch that can be earned by anyone.  Do not confuse that with the International Knot that a Adult Leader can earn. It’s not the same.

The date is Saturday May 14th.  Go here for more information!

I remember….

I am 42.  Born on April 9th, 1968.  The day Martin Luther King Jr was buried.
I have been to Washington DC twice and was able to stand where he did.  On one trip I meet and talked to a group of African American friends who were at the March on Washington  to see him speak.  It was a very liberating exprience.  These friends apparently walk the through the Lincoln Monument all the time and stop there.

So, I do remember Martin Luther King, Jr.
