  • 100 Facts About Scouting
    100 Facts About Scouting 1. Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, is an Eagle Scout. When he said, “The Eagle has landed,” he wasn’t kidding. In 1969, Armstrong became the first Eagle Scout to be portrayed on a U.S. postage stamp - called “The Man on the Moon.” 2. The original Invention merit badge (1911-1918) required the candidate to obtain a patent. 3. In 1911, 18-year-old Scout, Joseph Lane started Boys’ Life magazine, which goes to 1.1 million Scouts each month. A year later, the Boy Scouts of America bought the magazine for $6,100 - about $1 per subscriber. 4. James E. West was the BSA’s first Chief Scout Executive. When he took the position in 1911, he agreed to serve six months. At his retirement in 1943, he was given the title of Chief Scout. 5. The BSA is the second-largest Scouting organization in the world. The largest is in Indonesia. 6. One of Scouting’s most popular traditions, patch trading, has bloomed into a full-fledged hobby. Some rare patches are worth thousands of dollars. 7. For all but two years from 1925 to 1976, illustrator Norman Rockwell illustrated the annual Brown & Bigelow Boy Scout calendar for free. 8. Former Congressmen Alan Simpson and Norman Mineta served together from the mid-1970s to the late 1990s. They met as Boy Scouts during World War II, when Simpson’s troop from Cody, Wyoming, visited the internment camp where Mineta and his Japanese immigrant parents were being held. The two became - and have remained - close friends and political allies.

The History of Muscogee Lodge #221 Order of the Arrow 73 Years of Service 1942-2015 Indian Waters Council The Boy Scouts of America was organized on February 8, 1910. Columbia, SC organized a branch just two years later. Several troops were organized, but then disbanded, for a variety of reasons. During the early years of existence, The Boy Scouts of Columbia were very active in civic matters. They were often called upon to help during conventions, confederate reunions, State Fairs, festivals, charity work, and countless community events. During World War I, the Scouts of Columbia rendered valuable service to their country by assisting the Red Cross and numerous government agencies. Moreover, they were especially helpful in the Liberty Bond Campaigns, selling many thousands of dollars¶ worth of bonds. In 1916, the Columbia Council # 553 was formed, and it was recognized as a Second Class Council. In the spring of 1920, the council's status was upgraded to a First Class Council with the appointment of a paid Scout Executive. ,QWKH&ROXPELD&RXQFLO¶VQDPHZDV changed to Central South Carolina Council and its service area was broadened.
