Cub Scouting is where it starts. Dens meet by grade, and families come along — a parent or guardian stays for the meeting with the youngest Scouts. Expect pinewood derby cars, first campouts, and a lot of running around outside.
Join Pack 447
The Troop is Scout-led. Older Scouts plan the campouts, run the meetings, and teach the skills — adults stay in the background on purpose. This is where a young person learns to lead by actually doing it, on the way to Eagle.
Join Troop 447
Troop 1447 is a girls’ troop running the same Scouts BSA programme, to the same rank requirements, all the way to Eagle. It meets the same night as Troop 447 and the two often camp together, which makes life simpler for families with more than one Scout.
Join Troop 1447
The Crew picks its own adventures — rock climbing, kayaking and swimming are all on the list. Venturing runs on the ALPS model: Adventure, Leadership, Personal growth, and Service. Members vote on what the year looks like.
Join Crew 4447Kindergarten through fifth grade joins the Pack. Fifth grade through twelfth joins a Troop — 447 for boys, 1447 for girls. From fourteen, a Scout can also join the Crew and do both. If your child is on a boundary, email any of the leaders above and they will point you to the right unit.
