Royal Order Siam Neckerchief Slide
1981 – Contributed by Mark Mackowiak
I got this slide in 1981 after my initiation. My Troop (565) camped at the Octoraro campsite. The neckerchief is from my Jubilee staff days (1983-1984). I recall the mysterious nature of Royal Order of Siam ceremony especially the magical elixir given after eating the worm and the constant loud reminders from the peanut gallery (Pete from Health Lodge) that “you’re eating a worm!”.
