Something new is happening in Shady Hollow. Suddenly, there’s a sense of adventure in the air, the sound of students having fun while learning echoes throughout the streets. If you look, you might see these very same students working to give back to their community, and incidentally, yours. These students are a part of the newly formed BSA Venture Crew 82 out of the Shady Hollow Community, and they want nothing more than to serve and to learn. Venturing is a program that is a part of the Boy Scouts of America; however, it caters to both boys and girls from ages fourteen to twenty one. Instead of following the same organization as a Boy Scout troop and having the members go through ranks and earning badges, Venture Crews instead pick a “focus” and participate in related activities and strive to learn. Crew 82 has chosen their focus to be in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics or STEM, specifically robotics. The crew also serves as FIRST robotics team #8382 who go by the name of The T.E.D.D.Y. Bots and they plan to compete in the upcoming FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) competition season. Teddy stands for Technology & Education Developing Dedicated Youth.
