  • Biography
    Born 1954, Los Angeles, California; Former member of the now-defunct Boy Scout Troop 165, which met at Gledhill Street Elementary School in Sepulveda (Los Angeles) CA; I currently reside in Atlantic Beach, Jacksonville, Florida; I Enjoyed my Boy Scouting years immensely and was blessed to have Wally Racey and Jim Heath as Scoutmasters; I went to Camp Whitsett and backpacked the Silver Moccasin Trail; I believe that William "Green Bar Bill" Hillcourt was right about the need to "keep the outing in Scouting" and the importance of woodcraft and of Lord Baden Powell's "patrol method;" I sincerely hope that, in the future, Scouting will continue to be guided by Green Bar Bill's wise words.

    Hey Backpacker, do you still check in here at scouter.com periodically?  I was also a member of Troop 165, Gledhill Elementary School around the same time you were.  Do you know anything about our Troop’s demise?

    I'm a 66-year-old former boy scout originally from southern California (Troop 165, Gledhill Elementary School, Sepulveda, Los Angeles, California--now defunct). I have reconnected with a couple of my old Troop 165 fellow Boy Scouts. We all regard our Boy Scouting experiences as among the best and most beneficial experiences of our lives. I have joined this Forum to "reconnect."
