Introducing Danny Waltman–Association Trustee

My name is Danny Waltman. I am a member of the Eagle Scout Class of 2006 from Troop 4 out of south Nashville. I worked in a variety of capacities on staff at Boxwell from 2001-2013. I started as a Trading Post clerk at Camp Craig for two years and worked in the Craig Davy Crockett First Year Camper program for a year. I then served as the OA Rep at Stahlman in ’04 before serving as the reservation wide OA rep the following year. That’s when things get blurry. I spent a few weeks in Shooting Sports, a few weeks at the Waterfront, a week or two in Conservation, a week as Kitchen Director, Handicraft from time to time, and a full summer in the Activity Yard. I would then serve as AY director and the Program director for 2 years at Stahlman. I took a year off to get a Masters in Education, but came back for a summer to work in the Boat Harbor. Now that I have 1 son in Cub Scouts, I have been serving in my son’s Pack as an assistant Cubmaster and now Cubmaster in Goodlettsville. I plan to return to the staff in the next year or two.

Introducing Lisa Boyce, Association Secretary

My name is Lisa Boyce. Both my children grew up camping at Boxwell. My son James is an Eagle Scout and my daughter Candace would have worked toward Eagle as well if the program had been open to girls at that time. Candace is part of the reason I became even more involved in Scouting outside of my son’s troop when she started working at Boxwell summer camp at Cubworld. After seeing how great the Cubworld program was I wanted to be a part of it and started volunteering at Cub and Family events and with my district, Trail of Tears. In the district I have served as a Roundtable Commissioner, received the Long Rifle Award, and completed Wood Badge. Eventually I managed to save enough vacation time to work summer camp, starting at Parnell in STEM, teaching Robotics and Electronics in 2018 and the following year as STEM Director. While I do have a full-time job, I continue to staff wherever I can, working Webelos winter camps, weekend merit badge days, and helping at Cubworld, Stahlman, the Crab and the Boat Harbor during summer camp. Many of my favorite memories are from Boxwell, from watching my children grow up camping there to meeting some of my closest friends while on staff. I am very excited to be able to serve on the Boxwell Staff Alumni Association Board.
