Did mexican scouts come to visit you?

Yes, we hosted them several years in a row, lots of fun. We had a traditional "Scout Hut" that we refurbished ourselves, had two over the years and had lots of real projects going on that they were able to join in with us on.

We are in a small Central Texas town, NW of San Antonio. We tried at first to dazzle them with San Antonio, they said they just preferred to "hang out" with us in our rural area, fishing and such. That was pretty stupid of us at first because the Mexican Scouts were from Monterrey! They NEEDED that country activity.

We spent November wandering around Texas and several days in your area....... great place, fantastic folks.

Our troop had a troop we hooked up with in England and there was considerable back and forth. The families still correspond years later.

Scouts are great
