Congratulations to Austin T. Troop 451's newest Eagle Scout! Saturday afternoon, in the Highland Village Community Center, friends and familiy gathered for Austin T's Eagle Court of Honor to celebrate his achieving Scouting's highest rank. The ceremony was both cheerful and reverent, two of the tenets of the Scout Law, and was enjoyed by all there to honor Austin on his great accomplishment. Only 2% of those who enter Scouting ever attain the rank of Eagle, but Troop 451 is proud to count Austin as our 6th Eagle Scout this year. Austin, your friends, family and fellow Troop 451 members are both proud of, and happy for you. Many congratulations to you and your family on this outstanding honor.

Greenbar Fall Planning Campout

The Greenbar Patrol spent another great weekend at Sid Richardson over Halloween planning the next six months for the troop and helping scare those who dared buy a ticket to Sid's Haunted Hayride. Senior Patrol Leader Brown, SPL-elect Koonce and their staff did an excellent job and all present offered great input and worked hard to improve their leadership skills. On Sunday, a number of Scouts did their "daily good turn" helping the camp staff take down a significant number of the hayride "scaring stations" and after an ice-cold IBC root beer to cool down, we all headed back to Dallas. Always a good trip to Sid Richardson Scout Ranch. Senior Patrol Leader Brown pondering all he wants to accomplish during the weekend. Not a bad place to find a little inspiration. SPL-elect Koonce listens as the boys offer their suggestions for new campouts and new troop activities. Mr. Bach works with troop Quartermasters Hix and DiCiaccio on keeping the chuckboxes clean and
