BSA Troop 156 – Scout Message

    Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 156.  We’re glad you stopped by our Web site, and we hope to see you at one of our meetings!

  We are chartered by, and meet at Linworth United Methodist Church, which is located at 7070 Bent Tree Blvd. near the corner of Sawmill Road and Rt 161.  Our meetings start at 7:00 pm on Mondays, and usually last until 8:30. 

  Our weekly programs always include fun.  We work on Scout skills such as camping, cooking, hiking, map and compass skills, first aid, and swimming.  We play games, go on hikes and other outings, work on badges, and learn about leadership. 

  Our monthly program always includes at least one outing.  We usually go camping, and always pick a location where there is something cool to do, such as caving, backpacking, nature study, fishing, biking, museum exploration, and so on.  By the way, the Scouts pick where we’re going to go.  Did I mention that we also have fun while doing these things?

  Prospective Scouts and their families are always welcome at any of our meetings, so stop by and check us out.  During the school year, we meet every Monday unless Worthington Schools don’t meet that day, in which case, neither do we.  During the summer, we meet unless Monday is a holiday.  Our calendar is posted on this Web site, so take a look and see what’s in store.  We hope you find that we’re doing things that you’d like to do too. 

  We hope to see you and your family soon.

Yours in Scouting,

Ed Badger, Scoutmaster

P.S.  Our Troop doesn’t need a lot of rules and regulations to operate, usually the Golden Rule, Scout Oath, and Scout Law do just fine.  However, like all organizations, we do have bylaws, procedures, and best practices, so feel free to check out the fine print.
