Winter/Spring 2024

Posted on May 22, 2024 by StephenVoss

The Scouts started off the year with a HOST hike (History of Scouting Trail) where they visited various Washington, DC landmarks that have played a role in Scouting's history.

In February, the Troop camped at Marsh's Farm, a long-time winter camping site. Despite the cold weather, the Scouts persevered and had a great time. The 106th Anniversary Dinner was held the next month, following by a backpacking trip along the C&O Canal. In May, the Scouts had their last camping trip of the season before summer, spending two nights at the American Chestnut Land Trust, along the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland.

The Fall Scout season began with a Patrol Leaders Council where they received leadership training and planned out some of the activities for the year. Later in September, the Troop had an Eagle Court of Honor for a Scout who earned this prestigious award.

In November, the Troop had their largest Pancake Breakfast ever followed by a successful Tree Sale in December.

Camping trips brought the Scouts to Camp Big Mac, Sugarloaf Mountain and Walkersville Watershed. The Troop finished out the year with their Holiday Party, where each Scout brought in a small item, all wrapped up, for another Scout to attempt to open.

Summer 2023

Posted on September 7, 2023 by StephenVoss

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.

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.

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

Posted on November 1, 2020 by Kerri Cox

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.
