Congratulations to Will Mc. & Daniel K. on their very successful Eagle Court of Honor!

Troop-955 is scheduled to go to Camp Daniel Boone in Western NC July 11-17 this year.  Fees are already due to the camp to maintain our reservations. 

A merit badge called "Computers" would sound just a crazy to a 1910 Boy Scout as a merit badge called "Tracking" sounds to Scouts today. That’s because the BSA’s list of available merit badges has evolved through the years as the interests of boys have changed.

Program Concept:

We want every Scout, adult leader, and Scouting alum to have the chance to be part of our biggest milestone yet—our 1OOth Anniversary Celebration. We want to fire up the passion for Scouting while giving everyone an opportunity to make a difference—and earn recognition. Through A Year of Celebration, A Century of Making a Difference, we will do just that. Individuals can earn awards by demonstrating dedication to five of Scouting’s core values—Leadership, Achievement, Community Service, Character, and the Outdoors. Participants can earn one award in each category. The program will be both fun and engaging and, most important, will show America the impact of Scouting through its commitment to these values. A Year of Celebration will be in effect from Sept. 1, 2009, through Dec. 31, 2010.

The United States Mint has unveiled the designs for the upcoming 2010 Boy Scouts of America Centennial Silver Dollar. The coins will be issued next year, as authorized under Public Law 110-363, the Boy Scouts of America Centennial Commemorative Coin Act.
