Parents,

This wonderful tradition that kicks off Camp Royaneh is very special, since Troop 42 is one of the only Troops that gets to go to Camp the night before it starts and get our boys setup in camp and enjoy a great BBQ after setup.

BECOMING A MERIT BADGE COUNSELOR:

Boy Scouting is for parents as well as boys. Merit Badges need not be solely
earned at summer camps and special sessions. They may be earned throughout
the year with the help of talented volunteers like you!

Troop 42 is looking for TROOP PARENTS who are willing to help out with their
abilities and skills as one of our registered Merit Badge Counselors.
