Map for the Boy Scouts?[edit]

OK, I feel like scum -- certainly a second-class citizen ;) . Can someone with more skills than me please make a map showing the Boy Scout councils in Virginia? Bogomir Kovacs (talk) 16:33, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have rough notes on how to do it at User:Erp/Sandbox_How_to_make_maps. I'm not completely happy with the Girl Scout map; however, I'm delaying revising it until Nation's Capital and Shawnee merge later this year and there are some maps higher on the list for revision (not to mention a few I haven't done). A look at Category:Girl_Scouts_of_the_USA_Council_maps might give you some ideas. Scouting in Alabama and Scouting in Connecticut are the only states I'm aware of that have a map for the BSA councils. I've just created a Category:Boy Scouts of America Council maps to stuff these images in.--Erp (talk) 23:05, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
