A Moment in Time: Old Photos Invited from Our Readers

Photo by Lester Smith

On April 30, 1988, the Scouts of Troop 260 pose for a casual portrait in Sunrise Park during the troop’s traditional spring weekend campout, when the “newbies” are introduced to troop camping by the older, experienced campers and the adult leaders. From the left, kneeling: Adam Rouleau, Joey Sczapa, Ryan Winiarski, Travis Watroba, Danny Broadhurst, Jimmy Benson, Chris Sikes. Crouching: Brett Kowal, Ricky Santasiere, Danny Gracy, Chris Hawkins, Chad Rypysc, Josh Mills. Standing: James Hickey, Joey Stevens, Tony Baumert, Matt Phelps, Danny Quinn, Brian Dudack, Darren Hall, Bobby Rypysc. This 22-year-old photo is probably the youngest to appear in this feature. It’s offered to remind our readers of good times before the pandemic restrictions.
