Welcome To Troop 494!

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. ----Helen Keller (1880 - 1968)

Our Troop meets on Tuesday evenings from 7:15 - 9:00 pm in room A-200 at Dunwoody Baptist Church. We offer a challenging, traditional Scouting program - a game with a purpose! Through weekly meetings and monthly campouts, the boys learn to function as a team in their patrols. Leadership skills are learned hands-on in the outdoor classroom. The Scout Oath, Law and Motto guide all of our actions. If you are interested in a boy-led, traditional Scouting program, we welcome you to visit us. Stop by one of our meetings, or contact our Scoutmaster. The Scoutmaster is Brent Allen (scoutmaster@dunwoody494.mytroop.us) The Troop Committee Chair is Lee Firebaugh (committeechair@dunwoody494.mytroop.us)

Often the difference between a full life and a cramped existence is measured in terms of our opportunities to test our physical strength against the elements of the wilderness. ----W.K. Merrill The Hiker's & Backpacker's Handbook

Camp Kudzu Volunteers Needed!

Posted on May 5 2012 - 11:08pm

Camp Kudzu, a camp for kids with diabetes, is requesting help from BSA Troop 494.  They need 12-16 volunteers to help unload a large POD on May 26th, which will help prepare the camp for the campers' arrival.  It would be awesome if we could provide ALL the help they need - and we are invited to stay for dinner, and maybe even a swim in their new pool. Of course, you will earn volunteer hours for your service. Please sign up on this webpage. Deadline is May 10th. Questions? You can email Lori at desoutter@comcast.net.
