MaC's Memories

Of the thousands of people who are or have been Isle of Wight Scouts, some have left an indelible mark on Island, District or Group Histories. In this new section we will be adding the stories of a few of these Scouts.

Barry suggested that since I'll be editing the stories we should call this section MaC's Memories.

The "Memories" are in two formats: either published as pages accessed through the menu on the home page, or as blog posts (stories) accessed through the story photo index. The list below will link you to both.

We'd like to encourage YOU to write the story of someone you think has been a major figure in Isle of Wight Scouting. If not, can you add to any of the stories? If so please contact us via our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/groups/iwscoutingheritage
