Congratulations to Troop 327’s newest Eagle Scouts! 

Congratulations to Hayden Kappesser and Cameron Harris, who both successfully completed their Eagle Board of Review this week and earned the rank of Eagle Scout! Your hard work and dedication have paid off, and the entire Troop is very proud of you both! Since July, Troop 327 has had seven Scouts earn the rank of Eagle! We have two more Scouts, J. T. Evans and Adam Fish, who have submitted their application for Eagle and will have their Board of Review in the next couple of months. If successful, they will bring our total number of new Eagle Scouts to nine in less than 12 months! This is a remarkable accomplishment in any year, but this is especially amazing, considering all nine will have completed their Eagle rank during the COVID-19 pandemic. Congratulations to all our new Eagle Scouts, Eagle Scout candidates, and their families. You have much to celebrate this holiday season! 

2021 Summer Camp (6/13 – 6/19)

With the first snowfall of winter, now is the perfect time to start thinking about warmer weather and 2021 Summer Camp! We have our “regular” campsite (Site 4) reserved for June 13-19 (Week 2) at Camp Crooked Creek. Merit Badge registration will open on March 5th, so start planning your class schedule now! The Early Bird cost is $305 per Scout. A deposit of $75 is due by March 5th to register for Merit Badges. The balance will be due by May 3rd. This year for the first time, they are offering a week-long Search & Rescue High Adventure Program for Scouts 14 years of age and older. For our newer Scouts, they will be offering pre-camp "Open House" tours with an opportunity to meet some of the Summer Camp staff and get the lay of the land.

Scouting for Food a Big Success! 


A big THANK YOU to everyone who participated in Scouting for Food. The Pack had 18 adults & 23 Scouts put in 86 hours to deliver 1680 flyers. The Troop had 15 adults & 18 Scouts put in 62 hours to pick up over 2,070 food items from over 165 houses & delivered them to local food banks. We followed new safety protocols of course, and we were very successful in a year of additional need. What a great job by all! We are proud of all of our Scouts and their families for their hard work and generosity.
