This past Saturday our troop attended the Capital Area Council's 60th annual Report to State Parade. Many of our troop's boys, including some of the newest additions to our troop, came to celebrate scouting as it enters its 99th year. 9 of our troop's future and current scouts performed during the parade as part of our troop's band. We had a great time as we marched and played down Congress Avenue. The band had the privilege of performing under the direction of Austin Chief of Police Acevedo before the parade started.
Many thanks to Mr. Faulkner for allowing us to use his truck to drive the band down Congress Ave. Thanks also to Mrs. Wilder and Mr. Read for their support of the parade band as we practiced for this event.
We are already looking forward to next year.
