• BOY SCOUTS NOW 30 YEARS OF AGE
Coudersport Area First Had Part in Organized Movement in 1926.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America. Since the start of the Boy Scout movement on Feb. 8, 1910, nearly nine million boys have enjoyed the thrilling adventures, the benefits of outdoor life and the opportunities for giving assistance to others which Scout work provides. Today, there are more than 40,000 troops of Boy Scouts and 800 organized camps located in every territory and possession of the United States as well as every state in the Union.
Coudersport district area became an official part of the McKean-Potter-Cameron Council, Boy Scouts of America, at a meeting of the executive board held July 29, 1926. With the advent of this territory the area was McKean-Potter Area Council. Those men responsible for this progressive step in Scouting were
James Covey,
Dr. R. W. Richards,
George Martin,
E. P. Huntington and
U. D. King.
The units or ganized consisted of Troop 24, Austin; Troop 28, Shinglehouse; Troop 29, Roulette; Troop 30, Ulysses; Troops 31 and 32, Coudersport, and Troop 33, Galeton, with a total enrollment of 78 boys.
Through the years some of these units have fallen by the wayside and boys in certain communities have been denied the privileges of the program. It is a sincere desire that those interested in this program lend their efforts to the cause of giving every boy in every community in our area the opportunity to become a Scout, then, too, in an effort to increase the number of years a boy stays in the program, we have to look toward the organ ization of a senior program, namely Sea Scouting or Explorer Scouting.
The younger boy program for boys 8, 10 and 11 years of age, known as Cubbing, does not exist anywhere in this territory with the exception of a few Lone Cubs in the area of Ulysses. The desire for Cubbing prevails and this program, too, we desire to stimulate.
Scouting is carried on in Coudersport District Area through the efforts of
- Willis K. Elliott, vice president of Potter County;
- Harry Elliott, district chairman and chairman of advancement committee;
- Willard Hauber, district commissioner;
- A. W. DuBois, finance chairman;
- Dr. Ross Jones, member of advancement committee;
- Gerald Thomas, publicity chairman, and
- Judge R.R. Lewis, honorary vice president and owner of the property at Seven Bridges which is used by the entire council for organized camping.
The troops existing in this area are:
- Troop 31, Coudersport. Sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. R.E. Mosher, Scoutmaster, and Paul Moran, chairman.
- Troop 32, Coudersport. Sponsored by the Methodist Church. Ralph Johnson, Scoutmaster, and John Roth, chairman.
- Troop 29, Roulette. Sponsored by the Roulette Methodist Church. Rev. Henry Andresen, Scoutmaster, and Olen D. Dexter, Chairman.
- Troop 43, Galeton. Sponsored by Octogon Post, No. 291, American Legion. W. Gale Lush, Scoutmaster, and D.C. Chamberlain, chairman.
- Troop 57, Shinglehouse. Sponsored by the Men's Brotherhood of the Methodist Church. Alford Dibble, Scoutmaster, and R. Lloyd Jones, chairman.
- Troop 24, Austin. Sponsored by the Bailey Run Hunting Club. Rev. H.W. Witchey, Scoutmaster, and W. G. Haupt, chairman.
- Troop 44, Gaines.Sponsored by the Pine Creek Sporting Club. Harry P. Dewey, Scoutmaster, and C. W. Rexford, Chairman.
In addition to the troops listed above there are Lone Scouts and Lone Cubs in the Ulysses area.
