Saxonville Memories

From Walter Lech, here are a couple more memories: First, the Saxonville Troop 12 Boy Scouts.

Saxonville’s Boy Scout Troop 12 in 1942 included Walter Lech standing in front with his thumbs hooked in his front pockets. To his left is Paul Shock who lived on Concord St. and over his left shoulder is Norman Burke. Between Walter and Paul in the rear is Stanley Karp. The tallest boy on the right is John Antul who lived on Fuller Street.

The Edwards Street Hill was a great place to go sledding in the winter.

Walter remembered “If we gained enough momentum we’d make a sharp left at the bottom and coast all the way to where Chestnut Street deadended.”
