I am sure many collectors have had moments when they put something up for sale because of a bill coming due. I've got a pair of super tough Philmont Ranger jacket patches(1971, 1972) up for bids for a simple goal. Sophia's fees for the 2019 WSJ are about $2500. Even selling these two won't pay for 1/2 of the trip...Read More

My daughter was always going last night but we were excited when two of her besties from youth group and church basketball also came. I think the age range was rising 6th graders through current 9th graders. The Scoutmaster took the girls outside for about 30 minutes towards the end so the parents could ask some nitty gritty questions. ...Read More

This was a cool trip partially because it was a place that I had camped at with my troop as a Boy Scout back in the day. Now living in Charlotte this park is only an hour away. Today the girls hiked the battlefield trail and earned the patch. My contribution to the trip included breakfast this morning in...Read More

Last night I traveled to Camden, SC to attend the Wateree District Committee meeting and round table. I was there to pitch Camp Barstow to the folks that live on the eastern edge of the council. Ironically I made a connection with one of the adult leaders who grew up in my home council. We told old camp and...Read More

I got contacted by a good OA brother that wants to come check out my warehouse and potentially help me out sorting and getting some stuff done. He said he is willing to work for patches.

I also got an update on the Santee Lodge 116 TOR that will take place the first Saturday of 2019. What better place to hold a 1-day show than Myrtle Beach, SC in January. I know at first you might say wait you can't go in the ocean in January! But the truth is there are sooo many hotels that have...Read More

(910) 671-4919 [leave a message] email to santeeswapper@yahoo.comI started collecting Boy Scout memorabilia when I was inducted into Santee Lodge 116, Order of the Arrow at Camp Coker in the summer of 1986.
