Mic-O-Say

Don't know much about the organization. Is it only in one state??

Yep, only in Missouri. So many tribesmen have moved to other places, and used the program to start their own version, but most have used a different name. I saw a group with the same name on the east coast, but it is not the same.Here is a pretty cool web site with some pictures from a troop that goes to Bartle:

or my favorite site, cos its done by one of the youth staff:http://www.geocities.com/aglmus/staff.html.

You can also find the Hub for the ring. Again, I go to Bartle, and there is also Camp Geiger in Saint Joseph mo.

It turns out that there are numerous local honor societies in scouting. Only the Order of the Arrow is recognized as THE national honor society. The site below lists a great many of these other societies and you can click on the various societies to get more history and current information.

I grew up in a different part of Missouri and remember hearing about Mic O Say, but never knew what it was. I also remember Roe Bartle, the regional executive for what was then Region 8 (The Great Central West). Only saw him once at some kind of gathering. A very dynamic personality.
