Longhorn District Scoutmastership Fundamentals Course, Spring, 1998

About the Blue Sharks

The Blue Sharks were formed as one of three patrols attending Scoutmastership Fundamental training held by Longhorn District of Capitol Area Council, Boy Scouts of America. The objective of this training is to learn what Lord Baden-Powell referred to in 1920 as "the art and science of bringing scouting to boys."

Classes were held at Tarrytown United Methodist Church on March 26, April 2, and April 4, with a campout on April 18-19 at Lost Pines Scout Reservation in Bastrop, Texas. Staff members providing our training were Sid Covington - Scoutmaster, Paul Kenny - Senior Patrol Leader, Tom Horn - Quartermaster, Stewart Myrick - Troop Guide, and Roy Keithley - Troop Guide.

The Blue Sharks are proud to proclaim that we beat out the Geckos and Jalapeño patrols for First Place in the patrol competition which included several skill and spirit matches. Our patrol flag sports the victory beads for this honor.
