John retired after 40 years with the Boy Scouts of America, serving in SD, NJ, CO, and Dallas/Fort Worth and Corpus Christi, Texas. During his college summers, he was a wilderness guide in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and continues sharing wilderness adventures with his family. He was the CEO of the South Texas Council for 20 years. Active in the CC Mustangs, a charity group famous for their Texas barbecue, he is a past President of the Rotary Club of Corpus Christi and served six years on the Disciplinary Counsel of the Texas Bar. He and his wife Becky are active in church and have been married over 55 years with two grown daughters, a son, and four grandchildren. Becky loves ""civilized"" travel, and they have enjoyed several European trips.
Rendevous with the Past takes the reader on an adventure of self discovery to the wilderness of the Boundary Waters. If your personal history includes Scouting, you will be reminded of how Scouting changes lives, and that magic often happens in an outdoor classroom like the Boy Scouts Northern Tier High Adventure Base in Ely, Minnesota. If you love the outdoors and your own sense of personal discovery, the adventures of Louis and his Boy Scout friends will take you on a heartwarming journey of friendship, mentorship, and the importance of reflecting on our own personal histories. I am grateful to John for the journey and thankful for his lifetime of service to the youth of America and his impact on my life. Scott Sorrels National Commissioner, Boy Scouts of America
