JOINING SCOUTS
How do I join in the fun of Scouting with Troop 110?

You can also come to one of our meetings, which are held on most Monday evenings, starting at 7:00pm at the Stokesdale United Methodist Church (across from the Subway on Route 158). We recommend you arrive at 6:45pm, so we can get a chance to meet before the meeting.
Once you decided you would like to join our Troop, we will provide you with an Application to be filled out, and submit it with $11 ($10 for Council and $1 for insurance). We will the present your Scout with a Boy Scout Handbook, which is a trove of useful information, and also used to track his progress from Tenderfoot to Eagle.
