    Spring Issue 2013 West Central Florida Council What’s Inside This Issue: Dear Scouters, Council News 1-5 On March 21, the Council celebrated the achievements of the 2012 Class of Eagle Scouts and the accomplishments of four volunteers who received the Council’s highest honor, the Silver Advancements 6-9 Beaver award. The annual recognition dinner at the Feather Sound Country Club was a great night for Scouting. The dinner reminded us of all the hard work you freely give to make the Districts/Exploring 10-13 program a success for young people. For a number of years now, the council has struggled to grow its membership and increase it financial support. Certainly the economy in the last few Order of the Arrow 14 years hasn’t helped the latter. Scout Shop News 15 The West Central Florida Council receives a Charter to operate annually, just as you do.

  • Sea Scout Ship 681 Old Ironsides February 23, 2017 This Past Month
    Sea Scout Ship 681 Old Ironsides February 23, 2017 This past month Ship 681 has participated in a couple of activities and begun much planning for later activities. First off we participated in the annual BSA rally at the Capitol called "Report to State": At Report to State, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, Venturers, Sea Scouts, Explorers, and STEM Scouts from all over Texas march up Congress Avenue to the Capitol. After a Scout Spirit Rally on the steps of the Capitol, Scout Delegates from each council in Texas are seated in the House of Representatives and report to a member of the state government about Scouting accomplishments in their council from the past year. Each council provides a youth delegation and a spokesperson who summarizes that council’s Scouting accomplishments. Then a message about the state of Scouting overall in Texas is delivered (this year by our Regional Boatswain), followed by remarks from a representative of the Texas state government, Deputy Secretary of State Coby Shorter. This event is a great opportunity to be with Scouts from all over the state, and to visit the State Capitol. Sea Scouts from Ships 1492, 31 and 271 marched in the parade while Sea Scouts from ships 911 and 681 assisted with crowd control and logistics management. National Boatswain Rachel West also attended with her University of Texas Alpha Phi Omega colleagues. Boatswain Shepherd spoke of the importance of Scouting’s values, of their impact on the lives of Scouts and on his personal experiences as an Eagle Scout and a Sea Scout.

  • A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States
    A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States (Beginning with mention of Sea Scouting’s origins in England as a necessary prelude) This present document, “A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States”, is based in substantial part on an earlier document, Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States, part of the U.S. Scouting Service Project website at http://clipart.usscouts.org/ScoutDoc/SeaExplr/chronolo.rtf. Bruce Chr. Johnson, now National Sea Scout Committeeman and Northeast Region Commodore, prepared that original chronology for the Sea Scout history exhibit at the 1993 National Boy Scout Jamboree. It was prepared for background; not as a finished product. His original document contained entries through August 1989. With Commodore Johnson’s permission, I have reformatted his original document, added what appear to me to be significant Sea Scouting milestones from 1989 forward, and added earlier historical entries when and as they became known to me. The result is this present work, “A Chronology of Sea Scouting in the United States.” If an entry below is based on a date on or before August 1989, it is from Commodore Johnson’s original document, unless otherwise footnoted. Footnotes and subsequent entries have been made by me. If I have made an error somewhere, I trust it will be viewed as a human error and forgiven as such. I have tried to be thorough in my acknowledgment of sources and disclaimer at the end of this document. The sources listed at the end of this document are a great place to look for additional information on the history of Sea Scouting in the United States and Great Britain, and I encourage you to consult them.

  • Boatswain Meeting 20 March 2013 1. Sea Scout Academy
    Boatswain Meeting 20 March 2013 Present: Connor White, Fleet Boatswain (502); Matt Miller, National Boatswain (24); Jamie (24); Brenna Plante (208); Brandon Plante (208); Bridgette Talley (1659); Mrs. Johnson 1. Sea Scout Academy 2013 What worked? The SEAL track was very supportive. The food was awesome. What was troublesome? Troublesome things included overcrowding, people making noise after lights out, people not getting up and leaving the dorms when they were supposed to, and people who did not do their assigned jobs on the duty roster. Suggestions for the future? The adults will work on the overcrowding issues. Current ideas include charging a higher fee for people staying in dorms/less for sleeping in tents, renting hotel rooms, sleeping on boats, operating out of multiple camps. Overcrowding might be solved, but we would lose the fellowship of all the youth. One adult needs to be in charge of lights out. A time needs to be posted for when you have to be in quarters. Adults need to account for the youth, but time in quarters is earlier than lights out. That gives people time to visit and shower. But, when the lights go out, people need to stop talking, and phones need to be silent. One adult needs to be in charge of waking people up in the morning and needs to make sure everyone gets up and gets out. The duty roster needs to be posted, and the work done needs to be inspected before people leave camp and head home. 2. Sail Daze – April 27, 2013, Houston Yacht Club Who’s coming? What to bring? Small boats, sunscreen, $10.00, water shoes, lifejackets, and friends.

(AP) – Some people might think Mary Nacey’s devotion to her fos- ter pets is a little nutty, but she says mothering abandoned baby squirrels is a privilege. As a volunteer with the Penin- sula Humane Society’s Wildlife Care Center, Nacey has cared for nearly 150 squirrels, bottle-feed- ing them in her home, naming them and undoing the damage they exert on her flowerpots. “They’re God’s creatures,” Nac- ey said. “They were put here for a purpose. They’re so much like us with different personalities.” Nacey said that even though the job is time-consuming, she would rather stay home and watch the squirrels grow than go BY ROB WEAVER/Daily Titan Staff Writer out for dinner or a movie.
