Scouting Values

Scouting is a values-based program with its own code of conduct. The Scout Oath and Law help instill the values of good conduct, respect for others, and honesty. Scouts learn skills that will last a lifetime, including basic outdoor skills, first aid, citizenship skills, leadership skills, and how to get along with others. For almost a century, Scouting has instilled in young men the values and knowledge that they will need to become leaders in their communities and country.

Scout Oath or Promise: On my honor I will do my best. To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.

Scout Law: A Scout is ... trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Troop 2 Goals

Scouting in Troop 2 means Adventure and Challenge for your son and for you. Scouting is a GAME with a PURPOSE: to develop future leaders of strong character, good citizenship, and personal fitness. Scouting eight methods make it unique:

• Scouting Ideals (Law, Promise, Motto, Slogan)
• Advancement
• Outdoor Program
• Leadership Development
• Adult Role Models
• Personal Growth
• Patrol System
• Scout Uniform

Scouts tent and eat with other Scouts, led by an elected boy patrol leadership. Boy leaders plan, execute, and evaluate the troop program, guided and supervised by our BSA trained adult leaders.

"The Official Boy Scout Handbook promises adventure and the leaders of Troop 2 deliver it."
