About Us

Life for the Boy Scout revolves around camping, merit badges, and community service. We believe outdoor activities, such as camping, water sports, and hiking, develop the character traits — leadership, courage and self-reliance — we wish to nurture. We believe that outdoor activity helps develop character, citizenship, and personal fitness.

Merit badges are an integral part of the Boy Scout organization. There are over 100 merit badges that a Boy Scout can earn, and range from communications to camping to first aid. A Boy Scout may earn whatever merit badges he wishes; there’s no requirement to attain certain levels or rankings in order to receive a merit badge.

We love it when the Troop and the Pack work together! It gives the older boys, a chance to lead, and the younger boys, a chance to learn from other scouts :-)

It's Bobcat Badge time for our new Scouts! Bobcat is the first badge that you earn in Scouts and it helps teach you all about the rituals of scouting. We learned the Scout Law, the Scout Oath, the salute, sign, motto, & handshake!Of course popping the balloons, which each had a point of the Scout Law inside and building the Scout Oath with Legos were the BEST!

We keep our summer Pack meetings pretty low key, but still with a Scouting focus. At our June meeting the boys created custom neckerchief slides using Lego Dots and created a Camping Themed lego builds! Awesome job boys!
