Hello everyone,
As you may know Hessel is coming up and this year's theme is merry old England. I had the idea of doing Braveheart, which for those of you who don't know it was about the Scottish fighting the English for freedom. If anyone has any other ideas we will have a short planning meeting at Silversides, so start thinking of ideas.
Thanks,
Zac

The 2008 Sea Base crew was filmed by the Outdoor Channel for the upcoming series "Scouting for Adventure".
The Scouting for Adventure programs are scheduled to air in August. If you get the Outdoor Channel, please look for listings in August and email Troop 1 with dates and times.
Mr. Oakley has sent in some photos from Sea Base 2008. They will be added to the web site soon. Do any other crew members have photos to share?
