    With over 100 years of Scouting in North and Central Texas counties it has served, the Longhorn Council has a rich history to share. The Longhorn Council of the Boy Scouts of America serves Scouts in a 23-county area across central and north Texas, fostering character-building through a wide range of outdoor activities and educational programs. The Longhorn Council, BSA works with thousands of volunteers to proudly serve Texas youth in Bell, Bosque, Cooke, Coryell, Denton, Falls, Freestone, Hamilton, Hill, Hood, Jack, Johnson, Leon, Limestone, McLennan, Milam, Palo Pinto, Parker, Robertson, Somervell, Tarrant, Wise and Young counties. They are here to provide once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for today’s Texas youth.
    The emblem of the Scout organization has undergone several revisions over the years of its existence. Each time new features appeared but the main element remained the same ‒ a fleur-de-lis which is a stylized lily. One of its petals represents Service to Others, the second one ‒ Duty to God and the third one ‒ Obedience to the Scout Law. These are the three promises new Scouts make when joining the organization.
    This auction is for a vintage steel branding iron from the Texas Boy Scouts of America LONGHORN COUNCIL. It has the official Boyu Scouts of America Fleur-de-Lis deeply embossed into the face with "LONGHORN COUNCIL FRIEND OF SCOUTING" embossed below the Scout logo. It was probably designed as a paperweight, as the writing is "facing" you, rather than "mirror image" that could be transferred when applied. The face measures about 3" tall and 2 1/2" wide. the handle is 6" long.
