Old Coralville fun

Man is the wind blowing today!! Whew! Tuesday and Wednesday I hear..Nothing we can't cope with.. I can cope with wind easier than a Hawkeye football loss..Not good. I remember when organized football came to Coralville. Fall of 1961. 7, 8 and 9th grades. We Coralville kids only knew sandlot football. We knew only the rules that a Dad told us about, etc. We were greenhorns, but we were hungry for learning...OH, wait, calisentics?, pushups, run, hit each other..??...More later on this.
I will be at Boy Scout Toop 207 this week for their big Court of Honor. Several Scouts will be receiving merit badges, advancement awards/recognition, AND it is Alumni Nite!! That's me! I sure enjoyed every minute, every outing, every meeting as a Scout in Troop 207. Same old troop, and they still meet at Coralville Elementary. (now Coralville Central) Lots of good fun, a lot of good guys from Scouting..Great family program..50% of the leaders in the Boy Scouts of America are women.
More later!
