Rocklin Lions Club Scouting Family

The Rocklin Lions Club was chartered in 1955 and immediately chartered and sponsored Troop 29 of the Boy Scouts of America. The only charter member left in the Rocklin Lions Club is Lion Roy Ruhkala.  The Ruhkala Family was and is a very prominent family in Rocklin.  Roy Ruhkala was the first Scoutmaster of Troop 29 in 1952.  Lion Ken Weger was also a Scoutmaster of the troop. There have been several other Lions who have also become scoutmasters.  The last to do so was Lion Stu Hardy.  He was devoted to scouting and served as the Scoutmaster of Troop 29 for many years.  That is why the Stu Hardy Trail is so named.
