Summer 2023

Scout Troop 100 had a busy summer, with two weeklong camping trips as well as a high adventure trek to Philmont Scout Ranch.

The summer began with the trip to Goshen Scout Camp in Goshen, Virginia. The Scouts worked on their merit badges and enjoyed swimming, rifle shooting and other activities.

Later in the summer, Scouts attend Camp Rodney, on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay where they learned about the unique ecology of the area while working on merit badges like motor boating, leatherwork and archery.

Also, in August, Scouts headed to Philmont Scout Ranch in Cimarron, New Mexico to embark on a 70 mile backpacking trip. The Scouts went rock climbing, hiked up Mt. Baldy and enjoyed hiking and camping in the high desert.

Spring-Summer 2022

The Century Troop has been busy this year. After participating in Goshen, Rodney, and Philmont over the summer, the Troop helped complete three Eagle Scout projects during the winter. While the Scouts will see these new Eagle Scouts head off to college, the Century Troop is happy that several plan to continue as University Reserve Scouters, helping the Troop when home on vacation. Additionally, the Troop is excited to welcome several new Scouts, some brand new to BSA and some continuing on from Cub Scout dens, joining the Troop for next year’s adventures.

Fall 2021

The Century Troop is meeting this fall after a busy summer of camping. Possibly to make up for a year of Covid, Troop 100 Scouts attended Goshen, Philmont, and Rodney! Now the Scouts are ready to embark on a new year full of Scoutcraft, hiking, camping, and service opportunities.

Fall 2020

Troop 100 continues to meet despite the limitations of Coronavirus. Taking advantage of the opportunity to explore nature closer to home, Troop 100 went hiking in Glover-Archbold Park and the Battery Kemble Trail among others. As camping is essential to the program, the Troop has held camping @ home evenings. Most recently, the Troop held an outdoor movie night, enjoying the Scout classic Follow Me Boys after time on Scoutcraft to allow the newest Scouts to meet requirements. And, Troop 100 would never forget the Scout Law to be helpful in this pandemic season, turning Scouting for Food into its second contactless Food Drive this year.
