Everyone Welcome

Boys and Girls are both welcome to join Scouts. Our unit, Troop 380 is a combined Troop where there are both co-ed and independent activities. 

Why Join Scouts?

A great way to learn valuable leadership skills, build character, and foster responsibility.

Here are a few activities the troop attends each year:

• White water rafting

• Camping

• Winter skiing

• Historical hiking & mountain treks

• Bicycle trips

• Week-long summer camp

• High Adventure

• Community service

• Learn new skills such as first aid, cooking, wilderness survival, flag ceremonies, and many more.

• Rank advancement—you can work your way from Tenderfoot all the way to Eagle Scout!

Joining Requirements

YOU can be a Scout if you are:

• Age 11, or at least 10 and have completed the 5th grade

• OR have earned the Cub Scout Arrow of Light award

• AND are younger than 18 years old

Registration And Dues

The Troop re-charters every December. The first part of the re-chartering process requires each scout and scouter to renew his membership with the Troop and the BSA. The re-registration process will begin in October each year.

For 2025-2026, the Troop dues are expected to be $100 which includes:

• a (one-time) Activity 'Class B' T-shirt, 

• a monthly scouting magazine, Boys Life, and 

• all the badges a Scout earns. 

We want to help all children have an opportunity Scout. We can work with families that need assistance on fees. Please just ask. 

Parents are urged to register with the troop and help support the Troop Committee. There is no fee for adults to register but it enables you to participate in all Troop activities.  The registration fees for adult Scouters are paid for by the Troop.
