The Scouting Stuff My Mom Kept — When I was young I was in the Cub Scouts, started as a Bobcat in Cub Scout and made it to the highest rank, Eagle in the Boy Scouts. The Scouting Stuff My Mom Kept I think in Cub Scouts I was in Pack 13, I can’t remember … but as a Boy Scout I was in Troop 26 that I do remember. The joys of getting older … forgetting stuff. My mom passed away recently and going through her stuff we found she kept some of the Scouting stuff too.
