@beyondflorida: Even the Boy Scouts are selling out to developers in Florida. The Boy Scouts Greater Tampa Bay Area Council wants to sell a portion of their 1,400-acre Sand Hill Scouting reservation in Brooksville to the Withlacoochee River Electric Co-op. But, concerned citizens said it was the former property owner's dying wish to keep the property for the Boy Scouts. You can click the link in my bio to go to savesandhill.com to learn more. Thanks to Florida Phoenix News and @fox13tampabay for contributing to this story. #scouting #floridaenvironment #floridarealestate
The greed is beyond my comprehension.... it's sitting on top of our DRINKING WATER.... when will people making decisions that affect others realize that we can NOT eat/drink money when there's nothing left due to their greed

To disgrace the veteran who donated it, despite what the son did with the will, is just extremely sad. The Scouts should be ashamed of even considering it. Which means they’ll do it. 😞

If there’s a fucking tree anywhere in Hernando County, they’ll knock it down and try to put a fucking house there. It’s sad and it’s because these young kids that are on the board now are all invested in real estate and realty and shit and their pockets are all getting in line by these motherfuckers. If you follow the money, it’s all crooked and scams bad real bad in Hernando.

Anyone want to guess how much of that money will go into someone’s pocket and not on what they say it’s for

I think it would be better publicity for them if they kept it or turned it over to the state but to sell It out against the original owner's wishes should be the downfall boy scouts, that is just wrong. It's situations like this that stop people from donating and being generous.

There’s 2 blue water springs on that property I’m sure they’re not going to preserve those when they develop

instead of making it public use wild area and hiking trails, etc. Corrupt and greedy people will sell it to whomever pays the most.

It all ends with greed. We don’t need anymore homes. We don’t have enough resources already. I pray they do the right thing and not sell it.
