The US Mint is offering a special commemorative coin in honor of the 100th anniversary of the BSA.  The coin will be available for purchase on March 23, 2010.  Call 1-800-USA-MINT to buy your coin, or go to www.usmint.gov

The BSA has composed a list of 10 ways that you can get involved with the centennial events -- ideas ranging from geocaching, to visiting the travelling scouting museum, to earning the Centennial patch (above).  Click on the following link for more details:  ww2.scouting.org/100years/100years/guide.aspx

The Knox Trail Council has gone green, and is now e-mailing their monthly newsletter to scouting families.  Go to visitor.constantcontact.com/manage/optin/ea to register, choose the issues that interest you, and be sure to select the HTML version.   This is a good way to stay current on national- and council-initiatives.
