National Annual Meeting

The National Meeting of the BSA was in late May in sunless Orlando, Florida. We had about 12" of rain in the 3 days we were there.

Don Fitch of Troop 411 in Escanaba was one of 43 "Distinguished Scoutmasters" in the United States that the National Council hosts at the meeting. They are recognized and give input to program committees at national. Don is the quintessential Scoutmaster.

At the meeting, they introduced the 2,000,000th Eagle Scout. He is Anthony Thomas from the Northern Star Council in Minneapolis/St Paul. I saw him in the hall at the meeting and took a picture of him with a Scouter he was talking with.

The meeting was very good. The national leadership is giving leadership!
