The Josey Scout Lodge was dedicated to service in 1934. Inspired by a radio address by President Franklin Roosevelt, Mr. Robert A. Josey established a lodge for Huntsville Scouts. The Lodge was created by his vision, the work of members of the Works Progress Administration, and donations of material by Huntsville businesses and individuals.
At the dedication of the Lodge, Mr. Josey challenged those in attendance:
“Be careful what you do, be just in what you say, be earnest in what you undertake, BE STRONG TO FINISH what you start, and above all, be sure that these things will help others.”
The Lodge is listed as a Texas Historic Landmark and is on the National Register of Historic Places. In 86 years, thousands of Scouts and members of the public have visited and used the Lodge. During this time, the Lodge has received no major improvements.
Today, we are asking for your help with our immediate needs.
We are seeking to raise funds to make sure that Scouts have a safer place to meet, learn, and serve the community.
