Boy Scout Troop 696
This page is dedicated to the dedicated to the men, boys (now men) and their
families that made scouting fun in the 70's. Troop 696 was located in the 7th
district police station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I had the honor of being their
Assistant Scoutmaster forem 1975 - 1978.
|
During those years I saw many boys pass through our doors, and I hoped that
one day I would meet them to see how scouting might have changed their live.On 1/29/05, I had
that opportunity. Troop 696 held a reunion with 2 leaders and 11 boys showing up with their
families. The scoutmaster and I were thrilled and at times teary eyed when listening to their
accounts of their boy years with us and how scouting and sometimes our leadership help mold their
lives.

Please enjoy the pictures. Only first names will be used. Those that remember
our troop will have no problem matching the names to the faces. Please email me if you would like
