Why Choose Scouting?
If you're looking for a fun activity for your son when there is nothing more important to do, or if you're looking for an entertaining place to leave your son while you do other things, you need to sign him up for daycare.
If you're looking for a fun activity for your son that will change his life and make him a better adult, where your involvement is vital, then get him involved in Scouting.
A well-rounded boy should have involvements with his family, church, school, Scouting, band, sports. Our program makes time for these other important commitments. BUT, if your son has one or two commitments that preclude most other involvements, his life is too narrowly focused for his age.
Scouting is GAME with a PURPOSEto develop future leaders of:
* strong character
* good citizenship
* all-round fitness
The eight methods used by all good troops make Scouting unique:
* Scouting Ideals (Promise, Law, Motto, Slogan)
* Patrol System
* Advancement
* Outdoor Program
* Adult Role Models
* Leadership Development
* Personal Growth
* Scout Uniform
You can't get what Scouting offers anywhere but in Scouting! It's more than funit's an Adventure!
Scouts get to camp, hike, canoe, bike, and generally enjoy challenging adventures in the outdoors. Boy Scouting is totally different from Cub Scouts and Webelos.
We hope your son is interested in becoming a Scout. If so, you and he should visit several troops to see which one most appeals to you.
Troop 201 meets Mondays, during the school year, typically:
* 3 "regular" Monday Troop meetings per month (7 to 8:30 pm)
* 1 planning meeting (PLC) for elected boy leaders
You are welcome to visit any meeting (see troop calendar)! If possible, notify us of your upcoming visit by sending a message to the webmaster of this site. We will then be sure to have information available for you to take home.
