We excel in shaping young men into leaders, outdoor enthusiasts, and travelers of the world.
Participating in scouts is about expanding horizons. Troop 21’s emphasis on experiential learning drives everything we do, including meetings, trips, and advancement—earning ranks, merit badges and other recognitions. We offer many opportunities for advancement but encourage scouts and families to embrace them as more than rungs on a ladder. Scouting offers repeated, practical situations that reinforce new skills, which includes teaching them to younger scouts.
Weekly meetings
Organized by scouts, the gatherings offer opportunities to learn useful skills, including how to teach restless peers. Scouts also can work on advancement. Tuesdays, 7 p.m, usually at Wydown Middle School.
Summer: Big Trip and High Adventure
These outings, which last up to two weeks, take scouts on distant trips to some of America’s best. They combine camping, hostels, and hotels for an unusually affordable adventure, with slots for adults that often go fast.Big Trip is often around mid-June, and the High Adventure is usually late July.
