DESCRIPTION:Tim Griffin was fired from Camp Winton BSA where he had worked 9 years as 
 an inspiring and enthusiatic counselor days after Boy Scout executives 
 re-affirmed their anti-gay membership stance.  The reason given was "dress 
 code violation" but obviously he was singled out among similar violations 
 by many of the staff.  As a result 10 other staffers walked out alongside 
 Tim's termination.  \n\nThere has been tension building for decades now, 
 and this appears to be the spilling point with national attention towards 
 the shape of scouting to come to be determined.\n\n-----\n\nThis event is a 
 petition delivery.  We will be meeting up at the county offices.  We will 
 be printing out all the signatures of the petition and hand delivering them 
 right to the front desk. We might have a meeting set up with the council 
 offices as well to figure out a solution. There will be media coverage and 
 opportunity for our message to be heard.\n\n[link to the 
 petition]:\nwww.change.org/scoutscamp\n\nThere are dozens of eagle scouts 
 returning their eagle awards, of which I am adding along with their 
 statements to the petitions. If you would like to return your award or add 
 your own statement then please let me know!\n\nIf you have any questions 
 feel free to send me an email at griffinly3@gmail.com\n\n
