| The Webmaster |
|
Hi, I'm Lenny Andrews, a member of Troop 338 since 1994.
I have served as Assistant Scoutmaster, Scoutmaster, and currently as a Committee Member,
Secretary and Webmaster for the Troop. My son is long gone from the troop, and I've often
thought of retiring, but then the next Eagle ceremony comes along, and I realize why I still do this. I taught myself html so I could write my own web pages, and the needs of the troop gave me the opportunity to do something creative. New residents who are interested in Scouting now have a way to contact us, and we are linked to both the Town of South Berwick as well as the South Berwick Rod & Gun Club websites. We now have a way to store and share the history of our troop and to honor those from our troop who have achieved Scouting's highest award, the Eagle. In February 2008, I had the Troop purchase their own domain name, troop338maine.org, with a larger storage limit for a much lower price than I was paying my personal ISP for webspace. We get multiple webmail accounts, web tools, a lot of flexibility, and no ads. I highly recommend this, so a troop can preserve their website even if a webmaster retires and passes it on. I hope you find these pages informative, interesting, nostalgic, and perhaps amusing. If Scouts or Scouters want to learn html by using ideas in these pages, you are welcome, just try to be original with the design. I firmly believe that the web should be free, and that it should be kept streamlined for those who still use dial-up. I welcome suggestions for improvements, additions and, of course, corrections. If you would like to see something added to the pages, need to change or update an event, or if you find that a link doesn't work, please drop me an e-mail. Keep those suggestions coming...I'm able to get them posted very quickly. |
| Camp Pictures with Captions |
| Would you like to see the summer camp pictures with the captioned names of the scouts? E-mail the Webmaster with your previously identified e-mail address and I'll send you a zip file. If you have any other pics you'd like to see posted, send me a scan. |
| New Stuff... |
| I'm looking for summer camp pictures from 1992, 1993, and 2003-2007. Any other scanable pictures or news articles of past or current Troop 338 events are welcomed. If you can't get it to me in electronic format, clippings and photos are fine, I'll work with it. |
| Browser Hints |
|
These pages work best with Netscape 4.xx and Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher. I tried
the pages in both browsers and although they display slightly different from each other,
they both seem to work fine. If you find the print too small to read easily, click on View, Text Size, Larger; or in Netscape, View, Increase Font. Some of you with dial-up modems may find the home page slow to load. To load faster, bookmark the "events" page, which will get you into the site faster, then just check out the home page to see if anything has been added. Also, I designed these pages for monitors that are set for 800x600 screen resolution with font size set for Normal (96 DPI). In order for printouts not to be cut off, you should also have your screen resolution set for 800x600 or higher. If you find a document or page that will not fit properly on a page when you print it, drop me an e-mail and I'll look at it. Include your monitor size, screen resolution and browser version. Most folks are using newer computers than the antique I have, so I haven't heard of too many problems. |
