Troop 268 is Scout-led, adult-supervised, and utilizes the Patrol Method. It is important to keep in mind that the real leadership in a Scout troop comes from the Scouts themselves. Adults are involved to maintain safety, provide guidance when necessary, and make sure the aims of Scouting are being met. The Scouts run the troop program. Allowing the Scouts to run their troop provides opportunity for personal growth and chances to earn leadership skills.
