Seekonk Scouts

Posted

Seekonk Troop 1 and Troop 9 Scouts participated in an outing to Tangy’s Archery in Warwick, RI. Tangy’s staff taught the Scouts proper bow and arrow handling and safety. Scouts had a friendly competition to demonstrate their new skills. Over the past several weeks, Troop 1 and Troop 9 have been working on their Cooking Merit Badge. The merit badge requirements include meal planning, budgeting, and preparation of several of the meals they planned. Additionally, some Scouts had the opportunity to practice swimming skills.

During the recent blizzard, many Scouts assisted neighbors with shoveling driveways and sidewalks, ensuring their neighbors are safe, and providing assistance to the community.

Seekonk Scouts are currently planning many adventures for the year ahead including camping, hiking, and bicycling trips, as well as their annual weeklong summer camp adventure at Camp Yawgoog.

For more information about Scouts, contact Troop1SeekonkMA@gmail.com  for boys or Troop9SeekonkMA@gmail.com  for girls. Scouting is open to all boys and girls between the ages of 11 and 17.
