New Additions

Things are starting to happen with the site.

Mark McBride provided the most recent email list and sent in the story about the 1963 Somers trip (see Adventures > Sommers). Chris Callaway provided a letter that accompanied a history he was working on, along with some valuable comments about Post history.

Thanks to the email list, we were able to send out an eNews blast about the project (in the middle of the night, along with a couple of creative autocorrections). We've already received responses from a number of folks and are receiving more content.

Steve Cocanower sent in three PDFs: "t52 1994 summer camps", "t52 Jack Boyd Cookbook SC 1994" and "t52Getting started packet". He also has some content on floppies that we hope to get ahold of.

John Munson wondered if the menu item about our adventure with Sommers involved a woman named Suzanne (who would float the boat of many grizzled trekkers through the Quetico).

David Lang and Mike Thomas provided updates to their email addresses.

Bill Simon had some good questions about the site:

Why is it called the Post 52 History?  Although very active in Post activities, I had the impression Jack Boyd was more actively involved in Troops 21 and 52. 

– The site is a natural evolution of the Post 52 site and the Post is more or less the touchstone here. All the other content branches from that point, including important folk like Jack, as well as the feeder and sister units, the camps and so on. There is plenty of room under the troop section for as much Troop 52 content as GoDaddy's servers can handle.

What are the names of the individuals in the core group? 


– We've received a lot of input from Mark McBride and Chris Calloway. In addition, cudos to Mark for his generous contributed expense for the post52.org domain name and the site hosting.

Who is the curator / professional copy writer?
– Trey Yancy - creative director and marketing guy.
