How can I, as a parent, participate or help out with Hargraves Boy Scout Troop?
In a regular BSA Scout troop, parent participation is an integral part of the troop’s management and development. While we do have a highly qualified team of dedicated Scouters at Hargrave, parents are certainly encouraged to participate in Scout functions. Please feel free to simply attend our weekly meetings or if you have a particular “scouting skill” that you would like to share with the troop, please contact the scoutmaster and he’d be happy to set-up a program for you. Additionally, parents are welcome to attend any of our troop camping trips; however parents are expected to provide their own gear and should let the scoutmaster know at least two weeks in advance for menu planning purposes. Finally, the troop holds two Courts of Honor each year at which Scouts receive merit badges, rank, and awards that they have earned in the preceding months – this is an excellent opportunity to join us in celebrating your son’s achievements.
