Troop 5109 leaders believe strongly in the character building that comes from following the Scout Oath and Scout Law. We also believe strongly in parental support of your Scout and troop activities. Scouting is a volunteer organization and we always need motivated and dedicated parents! When your Scout sees you volunteering in Scouting, she will be inspired to continue longer in her Scouting career and it will be a terrific opportunity for you to demonstrate civic duty. As such, we expect that at least one parent per family is a registered BSA member.
National BSA policy requires “Two-Deep Leadership” – two trained and approved adult leaders shall be present at all troop activities; this includes any small group activities (two adult leaders with each group). A troop needs many trained adult volunteers to keep the program running and as such, we welcome parents to become trained, active supporters. ALL adults who wish to participate in meetings, camps, and activities must become a registered Scouter with the troop and the Boy Scouts of America.
Your excitement and involvement rubs off on your Scout. Please encourage your Scout to participate regularly in meetings and all troop activities. Active participation in the life of the troop will lead to advancement and enthusiasm for the program!
