In 1912, the first Boy Scout troop in California was established in Lindsay, Troop #1.<\/p>\n<p>The Lindsay Mural &amp; Public Art Society, with the help of Eagle Scout candidate, Josh Jones and Lindsay High School, completed the research and funding necessary to create a historical mural commemorating Lindsay\u2019s Boy Scout Troop One.<\/p>\n<p>California based artist, Josie Figueroa, using acrylic paint on Dibond aluminum composite, painted the 8 by 16 foot mural. The use of a sign material and framing system allows the mural to be relocated at any time. The mural depicts an actual Troop One outing in the Sierras in 1915.
