Friday Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter September 8, 2023
Here is one for you! An old Scout buddy messaged me and asked if I had a size medium Cub Scout shirt as his son was just joining. The same day a lady in North Dakota messaged me and asked if I would be interested in her son’s old Cub uniform. I asked her what size? She answered medium and hopefully in the next few days her uniform from ND will be on it’s way to Myrtle Beach, SC. The circular economy!
Today I got a call from a local dad in Charlotte asking if I sold Cub Scout uniforms and I pointed him to the Scout shop. But at the same time I packaged up an 8 pound box of used Cub Scout uniforms and shipped it to Conway, SC where another old buddy is helping to start a Cub Pack. I’ve gotten some push back from people saying online that I’m “keeping money from the BSA” by doing this kinda thing. If I can help a Scout get started or a pack or troop with their expenses I will sleep well at night….sorry haters!
On eBay I have 150 live auctions in Santeeswapper. Don’t forget to check out my other accounts OApatch and SanteeswapperStore where I also have auctions running.

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....
