We meet every Tuesday evening, from 7:30 - 9:00 PM. Attendance is not casual and boys come in full Class A uniform to each meeting. Don't forget your book, rope, compass and pen. The meetings are a healthy mix of instruction, presentations by guest speakers, and games designed to be engaging and provide the opportunity for younger scouts to learn from the older ones.
Uniformed adults are present at all activities to keep things on course, but the troop is led by our boys who have come up the ranks and had special training in leadership and scouting skills. While, boy-led meetings can seem a bit chaotic at times, it's through this process that they learn to command respect, become proficient in public speaking, and learn the importance of planning.
When done correctly, it's a time-tested formula which has served Scouting well since 1910.
