Scout Hut Clearance Day
The announcement said “Free Stuff” at the Scout Hut Clearance Day, Saturday, September 19 from 8am until noon. But those who are savoy in the art of community yard sales arrived early and were first in line for the best pickings.

The building’s two large rooms were packed full of treasures collected over the year.  The main floor featured rows of tables and shelves packed with arts & crafts, house wares, event and party decorations, books, and furniture. Upstairs offered an assortment of camping and outdoor gear used by Boy Scout Troop 717.  A few days earlier, a resident asked for all of the scout photos hanging on the wall, promising to add them to a memorial museum in Palmetto.  They were gladly given away, after digital photos were taken so they could be shared on the Chatt Hills History website. The treasure trove continued outside with an entire section devoted to decorations left over from the Halloween spook house.

As residents left with arm-loads-full of “free stuff” and smiles on their faces, they paused to offer their input or complete the short survey. Their overwhelming suggestion was to make the building available for the community now, and for future generations to enjoy.  

If you missed the Scout Hut Clearance Day, don’t worry. There will be more opportunities to share your input.


Scout Hut Clean-Up Day
A call for volunteers to clean up the Scout Hut on August 22 turned into a fun day of sorting through the hidden treasures in preparation for the Scout Hut Clearance Day and a fun morning of sharing stories.

Scout Hut Plan
In August 2020, resident and city council member Laurie Searle created a plan for the City Council’s consideration that would preserve the structure and find the best possible use for this historic treasure.

The plan would include a preliminary phase to assess the property and determine what is needed to bring it up to code for public use. At the end of this phase, I would present a report to the City Council for review.

After the preliminary phase, the plan would include a design phase which would include community meetings to gather input, interest, and volunteers to generate ideas for the best possible use of the Scout Hut. At the end of this phase, I would present a report to the City Council for review that includes the community input, concept plans, resources required, and suggestions for raising necessary funds.  [READ MORE]
