Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 303. Our troop is honored that you and your son would consider joining with us in this Scouting Journey. Boys Scouts provides an excellent opportunity to enhance and develop leadership and outdoor skills. It’s a wonderful investment of time spent with your son. You and your son will meet many new friends and share some wonderful experiences as you walk through the Scouting process.
On Monday nights, the boys lead the meeting at the Scout Hut from 6pm till 7:30pm. Generally, there is an Opening Ceremony, Skills Instruction, Patrol Meeting, Group Activity, and Closing. In addition, sometimes we’ll have special Merit Badge Clinic for the boys from 7:45-8:15pm. We generally have one campout or event per month. The cost is usually between $20-$35 per person covering food and activity cost. See attached Troop Calendar for projected dates and events.
The Boy Scouts of America was incorporated to provide a program for community organizations that offers effective character, citizenship, and personal fitness training for youth.
Specifically, the BSA endeavors to develop American citizens who are physically, mentally, and emotionally fit; have a high degree of self-reliance as evidenced in such qualities as initiative, courage, and resourcefulness; have personal values based on religious concepts; have the desire and skills to help others; understand the principles of the American social, economic, and governmental systems; are knowledgeable about and take pride in their American heritage and understand our nation’s role in the world; have a keen respect for the basic rights of all people; and are prepared to participate in and give leadership to American society.
