BSA Venturing Crew 808 Newsletter

While our youngest son was in high school and the year following, we’ve been involved as adult leaders/volunteers in Aloha Council’s BSA Venturing Crew 808, based in Mililani. Scouts BSA/Boy Scouts is a tremendous organization, we’ve all learned so much and gained lifelong skills and friendships.

I have bad knees so I never made it on many of the hikes, except Kaena Point, but one of my favorite outings was when we explored historical sites and walked ALL over downtown Honolulu on a BSA National Historic Trail, the Hawaii Heritage Trail Honolulu. More of our photos are here and more info about this trail is at this website. Someday I want to do the one on Big Island as well.

In Crew 808, it’s been a diverse mix of kids from all over the island, from as far away as Hawaii Kai. There have been kids from different schooling backgrounds – public, private, homeschool.

If you know of a teenager/young adult aged 14-21, please encourage them to join your local Crew and/or Troop. If you are on Oahu, please be sure to check out Crew 808. Here is a newsletter from 2021:
