The Josey Scout Lodge and its surrounding property and buildings is living history in Huntsville, Texas. The Robert A Josey Lodge, Inc. is responsible for maintaining this building, built in 1934 in response to a fireside chat by President Franklin Roosevelt. The board (I'm on it) is dedicated to making sure that the youth in Huntsville and Walker County have a special place to learn about citizenship, leadership, and service. This is a very special place and the board works hard to maintain and improve it.
