A Note
From Our Owner |
|
Once an Eagle Scout, always an Eagle Scout.
Scouting was a big part of my childhood and every four years I look
forward to welcoming Scouts from across the country and around the world to,
Washington, DC. Sharing the city
with thousands of Boy Scouts makes me very nostalgic for my days with Troop 52
and calls to mind fond memories of summers at Camp Rodney on the Chesapeake Bay,
Hiking the Appalachian Trail and walking the entire 184.5 miles of the C & O
Canal.
As the owner of
The Group Tour Company I look forward working with you to plan an enjoyable and
rewarding visit to my hometown. Please
let us know what we can do to make your Jamboree and time here in Washington
special.
Chris
