Why 401?
Why 401?
Troop 401 has always stressed the importance of a diverse troop, with female leaders involved in the troop for decades. Troop 401 fosters an accepting and welcome environment for any youth interested in leadership and the outdoors!
We are proudly chartered by Zwingli UCC, an opening and affirming church.
Troop 401 has and will continue to be a safe space for all youth interested in leadership, outdoors, STEM, and friendship.

TROOP MEETINGS:
Meetings are held on Mondays from 7:00 to 8:30 PM at the Souderton Scout Cabin on Wile Avenue, adjacent to the Souderton Community Park.
Troop activity signups, patrol meetings, trip planning, training, announcements, presentation of awards, and more occur during troop meetings. For each meeting, a scout should arrive in uniform and with his scout book. If a scout misses a meeting, it is his responsibility to contact another scout in his patrol, his Patrol Leader, or the SPL to learn what he missed.
The troop meets weekly, year round. If school is not in session due to a holiday or school vacation day, meetings are usually held. Exceptions are that no meetings are held during the week between Christmas and New Year's, Memorial Day and Labor Day. Also, if school is cancelled or dismisses early due to bad weather, meetings are usually cancelled, as well.
OUR DISTRICT & COUNCIL:
We belong to the General Nash (GN) District, which includes Scout troops, cub packs and venturing crews in the North Penn and Souderton school districts. Districts in Montgomery, Delaware and Philadelphia counties form the Cradle of Liberty (COL) Council, which is one of the largest in the nation. The Cradle of Liberty Council is home to Unami Lodge One, the first lodge in the Order of the Arrow, and Musser and Resica Falls Scout Reservations. It operates from offices in Philadelphia and Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. The council promotes and carries out the scouting programs in these counties, operates three BSA camps, trains leaders, and is our contact to national offices of Boy Scouts of America (BSA).
