"Troop 119 has been incredible for my boys.  But it's also been a fantastic way to meet new friends and give something back to an organization doing so much for so many."
Jon, Scout Parent

Parent Participation

While Scouting is scout-led, a Scout troop can only function with the help of many adult volunteers.

Some adults, like the Scoutmaster and Troop Committee members, have made significant commitments to Troop 119, but countless other adults support the troop by:

  • Driving to activities and events
  • Coordinating camping trips or other troop programs
  • Joining us on camping trips or at summer camp
  • Helping organize and maintain troop equipment
  • Becoming a merit badge councilor or running merit badge classes
  • Organizing food for boards of honor ceremonies
  • Helping with troop fundraisers

We realize that everyone’s schedule is tight these days.  But few activities are likely to be as rewarding as helping make a Scout troop grow and thrive.  Parents have talked about how Scouting brought them closer to their children, and the adventure of Scouting has led to many lifelong friendships among adult leaders.

 Please talk to any adult leader about what you can do to help us continue Scouting’s 100+ year history of friendship, fellowship and commitment to others.
