Troop 107 Meets at Wilshire United Methodist Church

Aug 02, 2000

By Mary Lewis

Boy Scout Troop 107 is looking for boys, ages 11?–17, who are interested in outdoor activities, leadership and citizenship. Since we formed in 1994, our troop has earned three ?‘Top Troop?’ awards at the District Camporee Competition for attitudes and skills our scouts have demonstrated, and ?‘Top Troop?’ in the Big Thunder District for having a well rounded program that meets the quality of the Boys Scouts of America.

Some of the activities our troop has done are 50-mile backpack hikes, 50-mile canoe trips, whitewater canoeing, whitewater rafting, camping, mountain climbing, and bike treks. We think we have a great outdoor program that young men will like. Our program also promotes leadership and citizenship through various activities within the troop and in the community.

Parents are encouraged to become involved as the quality of any troop?’s program depends on the experience and expertise that adults bring as well. We meet Tuesday evenings from 7 to 8:30 PM during the school year. Our next regular troop meeting will be on September 12, 2000. During summer months, meetings are centered on outdoor activities and for planning and preparation. If you would like more information, please call:
