Scouter Keith’s friend Bruce Hollowell is head of lifeguard services at Toronto Police Services and led us on a tour of the Marine Unit and a tour of the harbour on a police boat. The oldest boat they have is a beautiful wooden one built in 1939, now only used for special occasions. We also held a horseshoe to officially became a Sea Scout Troop while we were there. Some pictures follow.
