eBay Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter
Sunday Morning

As you read today's issue I'll be taking a group of Girl Scouts to Brookgreen Gardens in South Carolina.  Depending on what happens when we move this might be the last weekend trip I lead for our troop.  This summer will wrap up my 4th year of being a troop leader and it's been quite a ride.  I never thought this Eagle Scout and former OA Section Chief would be wearing green but as many of you know there is nothing we won't do for our kids.

My next Scouting journey will be as a Tiger Den Leader next year with my son Patrick as we start his trail through Scouting.  We've found a house in Charlotte so now I get to look forward to him going to a round up at school and getting super siked about joining a den with his new friends.  We hope to find an established troop for my daughter as she begins work on her Girl Scout Silver Award.  Venturing is also just over the horizon in a few years.

Even though I went to a pair of OA conclaves in April you won't find any of my stuff flipped on eBay.  It's not that I had some exotic strategy to outsmart everyone I was just too busy to make it happen.  You can see in this block some other folks were a little sharper than me.

This summer I will be bringing back my podcast radio show.  I think I can get it back to a bi-weekly format with interesting interviews.  If you have anyone that you think I should interview or interesting topics to pick up then please send me an email and I'll start making some notes.  With the 2017 Jamboree coming up in a little over a year there are plenty of ideas swirling around my head.

This weekend you can get 25% off of everything in my eBay store at www.Patchblanket.com.  Right now I'm sitting on about 7,500 listings so that is a hefty chunk of inventory.
The Scout Patch Collectors Facebook group is taking measures to monitor the group a little closer and tighten up the posts.  We had a spat of derisive rants and Internet spam that don't jive with the goal for the site.   The admins want it to be a place where you can buy/sell/trade scouting memorabilia 24/7.  Now in our 4th year I'd say things are going pretty well.
