Do you want to know more about Scouting? Perhaps you're new in town and looking for a troop to join? You've come to the right place!
We host an Open House at the beginning of each school year at Sharon United Methodist Church (SUMC) where Scouts give skills demonstrations on activities ranging from outdoor cooking, first aid, pioneering, Pinewood Derby and tent set up. This is a great time for parents and candidates to come and learn about our program.
But, we are always open to welcoming new or transferring Scouts anytime of the year. Come by and sit in on a regular Troop Meeting any Monday at 7pm.

BACKGROUND: Each year in January, Troop 355 cooks 11,000-12,000 pounds of pork to smoky perfection over hickory and oak wood. Manned by Scouts, troop parents and friends of Troop 355 - rows of smokers are watched 24/7 for two days. The cooked meat is then hand-picked, chopped, and packed by Troop 355 volunteers over two days.
Troop 355 BBQ is the "BEST IN THE GALAXY" and is our Troop's major fundraiser. The monies raised help support a scout's weekend camping, summer camp and/or high adventure trip cost. We appreciate your patronage. |
