We had a nice gathering at Robert's on December 28th and were able to cover a fair amount of ground. Dink brought a box full of interesting historic materials and we made plans to organize the gathering and compilation of content for the website. Robert also provided a whopping 24 GB of photos, courtesy of Allen Schup. The first batch of photos (a set of 149 Worth Ranch photos taken by Jack way back in the days of Captain Kidd) is up on the Worth Ranch historic photos gallery. We could use some help identifying people in the photos.
We could also use some team leaders (very, very part time) to poke the hoarders of historic materials into coughing up their Nishkin and Post treasures so that we could go through them and write some articles.
Mission Statement:
We also decided that it is time to draft a mission statement to guide us in the development of the site.
We could use some suggestions for the statement. To get the ball rolling, here are some starter ideas (wide open for modification, deletion, etc):
• Preserve the history of the Post and related units
• Preserve the history of Nishkin
• Provide a human story of life in a vibrant, thriving family of Scout units
• Promote the Scouting program via content that is informative, inspiring and fun
There you go. Write something and we can edit it as a group.
The next roundtable is tentatively planned for mid-February. We'll let you know the date when things firm up.
