Do you know any of these Boy Scouts from Luck back in April 1954? Are any still around Luck? Scouts ranged from 11 - 18 years old, so birth dates 1936-1943 are probable - making them 83-90 years old now.

A committee has begun with the goal of celebrating Luck's 125th birthday in 2030. This group has as its goal, bringing the history of Luck up to date. In 1980 and again in 1995 Luck History books were created and published. We want to chronicle the changes since 1995.
To get your help with this, we have created a page just to share information from the past 30+ years including photos and memories. You can click on the link below, follow the page and help us out. When 2029 comes, we will be putting the book together. We hope to get everyone with ties to Luck to help us out.
Thank You! We are starting with 1996 items, but welcome any year. Interested in joining the committee- Marc Cutter is the man to talk to.
