Our Program
Summer Camp 2010Our troop meetings revolve around our troop outings and campouts. We work together to make each time we go somewhere a great adventure !
We try not to " over-meet" and we meet on Sunday nights so not to interfere with school, sports, or family activities and to make sure all our scouts and leaders get plenty of needed rest. We try to camp or do a major activity at least once a month so rank requirements can be quickly met.
We like to do new and different things and go to a different summer camp each year to make summer camp an adventure and a learning experience for our scouts. ( Yes, we do go to amusement parks and sometimes stay in hotels with indoor pools.... )
We wear a complete uniform when we wear it, and always look one of the best units at any event or at summer camp !. We wear our class B t-shirt while doing activities.
Our aim is to have a fun, instructional program for the scouts. We enjoy being leaders in our community.
We employ the eight methods of scouting, Ideals, Patrols, Outdoors, Advancement, Personal growth, Adult association, Leadership development, uniform. We use the EDGE 4 step skills method.
For rank advancement we employ each tier of leadership to be involved. First Class and above Scouts check off scout skills for those of lower rank .Prior to their Scoutmaster Conference each scout's success in his leadership position and Scout Spirit ( attendance, scout methods, scout oath and law ) is signed off in his handbook by the Senior Patrol Leader. For Star and Life rank their list of merit badges used for their rank must be listed in their handbook and signed by the adult advancement chairman. Once this is completed a Scoutmaster Conference is scheduled. The scout must arrange this with the scoutmaster. Once the Scoutmaster Conference is completed and signed, then the scout schedules a Board of Review with the Advancement Chairman.
