Welcome Scout!

Welcome to Troop 614!  You are joining a very active and supportive troop.  All the leaders, Scouts and parents work together to maintain and support this group of Scouts.  We hope you will be an active member of the troop, and find the friendships you make and activities you complete to be rewarding.  Remember that the troop is only as good as the energy the Scouts, parents, and leaders wish to put into it.  We have a lot to offer you and your parents and want you to become a vital component. 

Welcome Parents!

All the leaders, parents and Scouts would like to welcome you and your son to Troop 614.  Scouting in Troop 614 provides your son with supervised experiences that help him develop new friends, enjoy nature, and respect our environment through backpacking, camping trips, canoeing, hiking and other fun activities.  In addition, you will become a vital member of the community by sharing in projects that help enhance our community.  The Troop 614 Handbook is designed to provide you with information about Troop 614, the leaders, the various committees, meetings, camping trips, and other activities.  We encourage parents to be active with their son in this troop and participate whenever possible.  A successful troop must have many parents involved.  Application forms are available from troop leaders if you have not previously completed one. To access the 614 Family Handbook click here.   In addition to the Family Handbook the Troop also has a Camping Rules Handbook.  The purpose of the Handbook is to explain camping rules for scouts and parents in Troop 614.
