Friday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter February 3, 2017
This is a shot of the burn barrels that supplied the hardwood coals for the BBQ pits. You can’t see it in the background but there is a mountain of firewood that we feed into these and harvested the coals with long handled flat shovels. Several troops in Charlotte put on BBQ fundraisers but I think most cook them on gas grills – not this old school way. But that’s my impression of T33 is that they are the throw back troop in many ways.
My weekend of Scouting continues Saturday with Scouting For Food pick up and Girl Scout cookie delivery. A few folks have asked how they can purchase online cookies from my daughter Sophia. You can visit her online store and have the cookies delivered to your door.
Going into the weekend I have 200+ live first-time auctions running on eBay. I’m going to spend the rest of the day building more auctions so I can keep the momentum going.
I don’t know if any of the readers have ever attended a “meet-up”. Now that I live in a metro area there are a bunch of these for just about every occupation and interest. The one I attended was for a couple of ecommerce platforms and I think I may end up trying one of them out. Nothing to announce yet but I’m always trying to think of the next project.

I 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. All the guys of ISWA chapter in Elk campsite seemed to be trading and since my dad sent me to camp with a small bag of patches, I jumped in and never looked back....
