Scouts to Mark Lincoln Highway for Safety Drive
The Lincoln Highway Association and the Boy Scouts of America partner to place four foot concrete markers along the 3100 mile route from New York to San Francisco. A caravan of four 15 year old Scouts will travel coast to coast in the Covered Wagon Demonstration Tour to show first aid and safety techniques, aided by two National Scout officials. This marks a first for marking 3100 miles in a single day with thousands of Scouts joining afterward.
