The three aims of the Boy Scouts of America are to build character, foster citizenship, and develop fitness. A Scout is expected to nurture Scouting’s objectives by “living” the principles described in the Scout Oath, the Scout Law, the Scout Motto, and the Scout Slogan. Adult Leaders provide counseling and skills development training through the conducting of a comprehensive, educational, year-round program of activities centered around the theme of “FUN WITH A PURPOSE”!
We are a Scout-Led Troop
At Troop 46, leadership is earned by the scouts. Elected by their peers, the youth leaders of Troop 46 have a lot of responsibility to take charge of the troop’s activities. The adult volunteers act as mentors to the scouts to ensure that all meetings and events meet the Boy Scouts of America standards while allowing the scouts to learn on the job. This system teaches scouts vital life skills and prepares them for their future successes.
Meetings
We meet at Morrisville United Methodist Church 7:00pm to 8:30pm every Monday while school is in session and Class A uniform is required at all meetings unless otherwise specified.
We have a strong outdoor program which includes one camping trip each month except in December. There are also multiple opportunities for earning service hours through our volunteer efforts in the community.
Parental Involvement
Troop 46 succeeds because of our dedicated parent volunteers. We offer a variety of roles to match your schedule and skill set, from Committee Members and Merit Badge Counselors to Assistant Scoutmasters.
