Every year  or two, Troop 947 plans a high adventure trip.   Preparations are currently under way for a 2012 trip to the Boundary Waters in Northern Minnesota.

Scouts who are interested in receiving more information about  attending Sea Base in 2013 should add their name to the sign-up form at the next troop meeting.

Dan Cerone Memorial High Adventure Scholarship

Dan Cerone was a committed Boy Scout leader in Troop 947. He also was a Cub Scout leader in Pack 946. Dan’s life was cut short by heart disease but his memory and love for High Adventure will live on through a High Adventure Scholarship Fund donated to Troop 947 by his loving family.

The Dan Cerone Memorial High Adventure Scholarship is designed to support youth members of Troop 947 who would like to participate in the troop’s high adventure opportunities but requires financial assistance. A $500 scholarship is available to youth members of Troop 947 who meet the eligibility requirements of the campership program offered by the high adventure facility the troop will be visiting.

For further details and information on how to apply or if you would like to donate to the Scholarship fund, please contact the Scoutmaster or Committee Chair.
