Troop 947’s Approach

Troop 947 focuses on a well rounded program led by experienced boys within the troop. The Patrol Leader Council, chaired by the Senior Patrol Leader, develops a plan of activities that will provide the troop members a fun way to meet the troop mission statement. The PLC is guided by the Scoutmaster and the activity plan is reviewed and approved by the Adult Troop Committee. Execution of the approved plan by the troop members provides opportunities to build scouting and leadership skills preparing the boys for rank advancement and increased responsibility. Adult leadership provides the troop with guidance and support in a way that allows the boys to feel ownership and growth with the benefit of a solid safety net beneath them.
