Meaning, the boys lead the Troop, not the adults. The scouts of Troop 95 are run by the patrol method and conduct their own meetings, with a Scoutmaster and/or Assistant Scoutmasters to help guide. We as a Troop, feel that there is no better way to teach leadership than to practice by doing. The scouts have duty rosters when on campouts. The scouts choose ‘where’ they will camp, ‘when’ they will camp, and create duty rosters to equally divide all of the work including cooking and cleaning.

The scouts of Troop 95 learn to be prepared, self reliant, and learn how to work together as a team. They do this through our campouts and patrol activities. The scouts have a camping weekend opportunity about once a month, with additional activities throughout the year. Troop 95 has camped in the Florida Keys, the Boundary Waters of Minnesota, pitched our tents on a sandbar in the middle of the Wisconsin River and spent nights in caves with bats sleeping above our heads. Troop 95 will continue to plan outdoor activies, wherever the PLC members decide to take us.

Troop 95 is proud of the 43 members who have reached the rank of Eagle Scout since the troop’s inception in 1969. Many scouts attain rank advancement through summer camp programs. Boys are encouraged to earn merit badges individually or in groups. Courts of Honor are held periodically to recognize and celebrate the achievements of the boys.
