Hi There! My name is Dave Bregar, and I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I'm a Scouter.

What's a Scouter?

Well...

If you are paid to do Scouting, you are called a professional;

If you don't get paid to do Scouting, you're a volunteer;

But, if you PAY to do Scouting, then you are a SCOUTER!

In my spare time I work for a computer company, and am a vocal musician with the New Mexico Symphony Orchestra Chorus. I have two sons. Matt, 29, graduated from the University of New Mexico in 2000 and was married in April of 1999. He and his wife Kim live in Monroe, WA, and own a restaurant in Mill Creek, WA named Zinnia. Tommy, 23, graduated from Sandia High School in May of 2002, and from TVI in 2005. Tommy is also living in Washington, and works as an assistant chef at Zinnia. My lovely wife, Beth, and I have been married for 30+ fantastic years. I serve on the Council Camping Committee, and am a climbing instructor for the council. I'll be teaching climbing at NCS - Camp Lassen, northern California, in the spring of 2007. We have a "Boy Scouting Family". Beth works for the BSA at the local Council office, is the Sandia District Training Chairman, and serves on Cub Scout Roundtable staff. Beth received the Silver Beaver award in 2001! She attended Cub Scout Trainer Wood Badge at Philmont in 1996,and I attended Boy Scout Wood Badge in August of 1996, also at Philmont. We are both in the Fox Den / Patrol! Beth and I both served on the Council Wood Badge staff for 2003-2006. Matt is an Eagle Scout, and Tommy obtained life. Our entire family is in the Order of the Arrow, and we are all Brotherhood. Tommy was the vice-chief of administration for Lodge 66. This selection of pages is our family's "Scouting" addition to the Web! Enjoy!

In my spare time (when I'm not working!) I also enjoy Ham Radio (My call is KA5LHQ), woodworking, high power rocketry, and Backpacking. Tommy, Matt, Eric Frieda, and myself backpacked a portion of the Appalachian Trail in Vermont in 2003. I'm also learning to fly, and hope to have my private pilots license soon.

Matt and I spent our 1996 Summer vacation at Philmont Scout Ranch with other Scouts from Troop 381. Philmont is the largest camping facility in the world, and is located in North-Eastern New Mexico. Click here for a reprint of my journal about our Trek (709-H)!

I was fortunate to attend a Boy Scout Wood Badge course at Philmont in August, 1996! It was course SR-173, and I was in the Fox Patrol. What a great experience!

Tommy and I went on a Trek (705-F2) at Philmont in 1999! 95 miles is a LONG walk! Click Here for the "Blister Buster" newsletter, which I wrote for the Trek Crews. And Click Here for my journal from our trek. We had a real "mountain-top" experience!
Tommy and I went back to Philmont in July of 2001! Our trek was great!
Crew 1337 attended the Kanik winter camping program at Philmont in 2003. Great program!

I hope you enjoy your visit to these pages! Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you in your Scouting adventures!
