Why join?

Boys, do you want some adventure?
You can find it in Boy Scouts!
Here are some of our typical activities each year:
Typical group
  • "Easy" leanto camping
  • "Cabin camping" in the winter
  • Hiking and camping on the Appalachian Trail
  • Kayaking through the Salt Marshes at the Jersey Shore
  • Bicycle trips on railroad trails and mountain-bike trails
  • Rifle Shoot camping trips
  • Building catapults and towers out of logs
  • Building new hiking trails
  • Week-long summer camp
  • Learning new skills, such as wilderness survival, lifesaving, electronics, and hundreds more
If you love the great outdoors and you enjoy a challenge, join Boy Scouts!

Part of the Boy Scout program is rank advancement. You can work your way from Tenderfoot all the way to EAGLE! Here are some amazing facts about the Eagle rank:

  • Only about 2% of all boys who join Scouting attain the rank of Eagle
  • 9 of 11 men who walked on the moon are Eagle Scouts!
  • Close to 50% of all boys listed in "Who's Who in American High Schools" are Eagle Scouts
  • Professional recruiters put more value on an Eagle Scout candidate than on any sport or intramural activity
Parents -- there is no better way to teach leadership, build character, and foster responsibility than Boy Scouts of America.

Who can join? Any boy who is 11 years old or who has finished fifth grade is eligible to join. No experience necessary! (Some of our more demanding trips may be limited, but most campouts are open to all Scouts.)

Troop 184 meets at the Green Township Municipal building on most Wednesday nights. If you are interested at all in our troop, please contact me:
