The Scout program is intended for youth between ages 11 and 14 (Grades 6 - 8). Activities include outdoor activities, camping, and hiking.
What do Scouts do?
Scouts are at the age where they can experience the true adventure that Scouting has to offer – from arts &crafts in the meeting place to climbing, sailing, hiking, camping and much more! We aim to give Scouts a wide range of experiences so they can learn some new skills along the way.
The troop is comprised of boys and girls aged 10-14. Its aim is to encourage the Scouts to provide their own program of exciting and challenging indoor and outdoor activities. They will form friendships, work together, and develop their own sense of independence.
The troop operates on a patrol system which are smaller groups that work together on activities.
The Troop meetings and activities follows the school year (Sep-Jun) and break for July and August. Sometimes they attend Jamborees or do camps in the summer.
