Desoto Sun Herald - 02/05/06-Boy Scouts weigh merits of selling hot real estate

Desoto Sun Herald - 02/05/06: "Boy Scouts weigh merits of selling hot real estate
BRADENTON -- For 77 years, Boy Scouts have spent nights telling stories around the campfires at Camp Flying Eagle, beneath a lush canopy of oaks and Spanish moss on the banks of the Manatee River.
That ritual may soon be over. With the Gulf Coast's hot real-estate climate enveloping the area, developers have offered to buy the camp from the Southwest Florida Council of the Boy Scouts of America for as much as $13 million, setting off a local battle."
