Mandy and Tracy Glenn

Published: Jan. 18, 2022, 10 a.m.

Although 8 years apart, Mandy Glenn-Clay and Tracy Glenn-Applegate,  experienced Scouting and Philmont together, and the impact it had on their lives resonates still today. The Glenn sisters share their Philmont origin stories and discuss various encounters with wildlife, the challenges of being female in Scouting in the 80's, and their appreciation for teachable moments and learning how to effectively communicate within a team setting.  Like may of us, they praise the Philmont staff community for its ability to support one another and maintain life-long friendships.
