At Troop 218 it is our mission to help scouts transition into responsible and respectful adults. we equip them with the tools necessary to become a good citizen, a medic, a scientist, astronomer, a wilderness explorer, or strong leader.
For more than 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America has worked with parents across the country to teach character, confidence, and integrity to the next generation. The lessons learned and relationships built in Scouting have been instrumental in the lives of millions of business, civic, and community leaders. It’s time to experience what Scouting can do for your child.
While in Troop 218 your scout will make lots of long-lasting friendships and make fun memories that will last a lifetime.
Scout-age youth experience dramatic physical and emotional growth. Scouting offers them opportunities to channel much of that change into productive endeavors and to find the answers they are seeking for many of their questions.
In the outdoors, youth have opportunities to acquire skills that make them more self-reliant. They can explore canoe and hiking trails and complete challenges they first thought were beyond their ability. There is no greater teacher than the great outdoors.
Scouting programs instill in youth the values found in the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Scouting helps youth develop academic skills, self-confidence, ethics, leadership skills, and citizenship skills that influence their adult lives.
