Troop
77 - New Building Planning Process
- The planning for the
new Troop 77 Scout Building took approximately 18 months during
2000 - 2002. The Troop Committee met many times to discuss the alternatives...
usually value and benefits versus cost. Those planning steps are
reviewed here for your information.
· All potential uses for the building were listed.
· Using our experience with our current
building, the desired features were listed (number of rooms;
size of rooms; equipment storage; rest rooms; kitchen; heat &
air; fireplace; wall space for history display; etc.)
· We used uses and features to design the first
draft of the building. Although this first draft was functional,
it wasn't very efficient nor was it visually attractive
- Our next
try was an improvement to the internal layout and produced
a more visually attractive building. However, the committee felt
that wall space was not used to our best advantage.
- Our next
modification incorporated the concept of a special wall
to recognize and honor previous Eagle Scouts from Troop 77. The
design was modified to "funnel" or focus attention on
this special wall. This introduced the "V"-shaped wall
with the Eagle at it's center. After considering several other internal
layouts, this basic design was adopted.
