About This Item

This Travel Bug was released by BSAeagle60 as part of the Geocaching Merit Badge in Milford, Connecticut.  Requirement 8B requires a scout to release a scouting-related travel bug into the world of geocaching, and monitor its activity.  The owner, myself, is an Eagle Scout, and Geocaching was the 76th and final merit badge earned before my advancement was forced to a halt by the arrival of my eighteenth birthday in January 2014; Scouts cannot advance after their eighteenth birthdays.  The 8th point of the Boy Scout law states that "A Scout is Cheerful."  A Scout is cheerful as he does his good turn daily, and a scout helps others to be cheerful.  I hope that this bug is able to make geocachers around the country a little happier.

    Still missing. It is unlikely that it will turn up this point. Thank you to all who assisted. "A Scout is Cheerful" went to five states. I will launch another at some point in the future.
