Troop 60 was originally chartered in July of 1936. Arlie Ingram was the first
Scout Master. The eight charter member scouts were Ulus Light, John Betterton, Houston
Betterton, Frank Feemster, Floyd Hyatt, Jimmie Isom,
Hayden McClure, and Byron Tompkins.
According to Council records, the troop did not recharter during the years of
1941 through 1943. It is a natural assumption that adult leadership was scarce
due to the war. However the troop was reorganized and rechartered in December of
1944. Tenure for scouting units is recognized by how many years of continuous
service have been achieved. In December 2004 Troop 60 celebrated 60 years with
hopes of many more great years to come. |
