As Tigers, Bobcats, Wolves, Bears and Webelos you learn new things and new skills that you will use to meet challenges as you get older. For you boys who are Webelos, the next step is to cross over the bridge to Boys Scouts

  3. Being a Boy Scout is not that different from being a Cub Scout. In Cub Scouts you work with your Den Leaders who helped you with your advancements, projects and Activity Pins. In Boy Scouts you will also work on advancements and Merit Badges. The big difference is you will be part of a team of boys working together.

  6. What will I do when I become a Boy Scout? In Troop 482, we have many different activities. Our troop meets each week where we work on all different types of skills for camping, physical fitness, knot tying and First Aid, just to mention a few. We also go camping every month. Each year there is a ski trip or white water rafting trip. We participate in community events such as parades and perform community service for our town. But most of all, we have fun!

  7. What equipment will I need to go camping? The Boy Scout motto is “Be Prepared”. Here are some of the basic items you will need for a camping trip. Matches, Compass and Flashlight. Mess Kit, Utensils and Insulated Cup Ground Pad and Sleeping Bag
