Hundreds of people attended. There were plenty of games for the kids, a dinner provided by the Jamboree troops, and several displays showcasing the history of Scouting. There was a lot to do and see. I was there with my cameras, of course. The Century Of Values road team was on hand to display the specially designed recreation vehicle (see the Melrose Scouting Productions Podcast #75) and to present the council will a reproduction of the mural featured on the back of the vehicle. The mural does a great job of showing the history of 100 years of the Boy Scouts of America. The latest episode of the Melrose Scouting Productions Podcast (#76) is the second of four videos highlighting the events of the council's open house. This video features the presentation of the Century Of Values mural from the road team to the council president, along with an explanation of the mural and its design. Be sure to take the time to view it when it comes to your council. More information about the "A Century Of Values" tour can be found on their website at http://www.acenturyofvalues.org/ Also check out their blog and the post about their visit to the Central Minnesota Council. The road crew mentions that this was the largest crowd they had seen at a council event up to this point.

Not only was the presentation and intent of the tour interesting and a worthwhile afternoon, but we were fortunate to have the mural artist on site, as he lives in our council area. It is so much better in real life, and a great depiction of historical elements. The original will be presented to National in February, and will be a wonderful addition to the collections. These volunteers going across country like this are truly showing fine examples to the communities in which they visit. Kudos to them all. admin | IP: Logged spin-off new thread chuckprohaska New Forum Member Registered: 12/30/1999 Location: Warren, MI Posts: 1 View member's profile Send Private Message Ignore this user RE: Century Of Values Mural Presentation Posted: Thursday, 11/12/2009: 12:23:05 PM     quality THANKS! As one of the A century of Values Scouters that visited Camarillo, I can speak for all of our team when I say that the wecome we had while visitng was outstanding as well. Visiting councils across America has been an eye opening experience for all of us. We've evolved from a group of freinds in a local council to truly feeling like we are members of a nationwide family. Councils all over have welcomed us in and shared in that Scouting spirit that has helped to make the Boy Scouts of America the organization that it is. We look forward to meeting with even more Scouts and Scouters as we travel through Southern California the next week and a half! admin | IP: Logged spin-off new thread stevejb Senior Forum Member Registered: 1/27/2004 Location: Minnesota Posts: 199 View member's profile Send Private Message Ignore this user RE: Century Of Values Mural Presentation Posted: Thursday, 11/12/2009: 9:47:20 PM     quality A new post to the Melrose Scouting Productions Podcast is the third of four videos featuring the open house held by the Central Minnesota Council on September 2, 2009, to celebrate the "A Century Of Values" tour. This video features some of the other activities that were taking place on the grounds of the council office. The video begins with a visit with two of the district executives having a little fun and racing cars at one of the activities. Then we spend a moment with the council executive as we watch the Cub Scouts ride a hot air balloon. One of the gentlemen touring the country with the "A Century Of Values" RV takes a moment to speak with us. The video ends with a magician performing a card trick for us.
