Mr. Creeden's Farewell

When Mr. Creeden left the troop, there was a farewell party for him.  Based on the image of the window in the photo, it seems to have taken place in the Kennedy Room.   

Here he is with Mrs. Creeden.

Thank you for your service with Troop 466!

Troop 466 - The Odds and Ends

These photos come from the Creeden Collection. 

 Mr. John Creeden was a Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster with Troop 466, sponsored by St. John the Evangelist Church (Silver Spring, MD). 

Because there were few notes on the photos, we do not know about many of these events. 

If you participated in any of these events as a Scout and/or Scouter, or recognize anyone in the photos, we would love to hear from you.

Troop 466 Competes in an Inter-Troop Competition

These photos come from the Creeden Collection. 

Mr. John Creeden was a Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster with Troop 466, sponsored by St. John the Evangelist Church (Silver Spring, MD). 

Because there were no notes on the photos, we believe that these are from an Inter-Troop Competition. 

However, we have no indication of when or where this was held. If you participated in this event or recognize anyone in the photos, we would love to hear form you.

Troop 466 visits Camp Sinoquipe (1975)

 

John Creeden (1921 - 2021) served as both Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop 466 (Silver Spring) during the mid/late 1960s to the early 1970s.

Mr. Creeden passed away in June of this year.  A number of boxes of his Scout memorabilia was sent to the author of this blog - photos, documentation, etc.

After sorting through the photos and scanning them, a series of short videos were created.

This very short video documents the visit of Troop 466 to Camp Sinoquipe, which is currently run by the Mason-Dixon Council.

If you attended this event and can provide information about the trip, the participants, etc, we would love to hear from you.

The Bike Collection -- A Blast from the Past!

John Creeden (1921 - 2021) served as both Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop 466 (Silver Spring) during the mid/late 1960s to the early 1970s.

Mr. Creeden passed away in June of this year.  A number of boxes of his Scout memorabilia was sent to the author of this blog - photos, documentation, etc.

After sorting through the photos and scanning them, a series of short videos were created.

In this short video, we see the members of Amangamek-Wipit Lodge #470 repaired 16 bikes and tricycles for the Stephen Knolls Elementary School (Silver Spring, MD). They were donated for the use of the Special Education students at the school in March 1971.  This activity was organized by Mr. Creeden.  

If you participated in this, or know any of the individuals involved, we would love to hear from you.
