Our Scouting Heritage

Early Boy Scout Troop, Ohio 1918

Founding of the BSA

The Boy Scouts of America (BSA) was founded by Chicago publisher William Boyce on February 8, 1910. At that time in the US, there were several other loosely structured outdoor-oriented youth organizations, some using the name “Boy Scout” and some using other names, and there were already a number of troops in existence using some variation of the British Scout program.

2000: Founding Cub Scout Pack 301

Cub Scout Pack 301 was founded in 2000 and has been a continuous unit providing youth the time of their lives making new friends and learning new things in an environment designed to help them succeed. 

 From building their own Pinewood Derby car to learning how to roast the perfect marshmallow with friends at a family camp out, your child will LOVE being a Cub Scout!

2002: Our Troop Legacy

Boy Scout Troop 301 was founded in 2002. We have grown throughout the years and have seen many Eagle Scout made out of our Troop. We are committed to the principles of a scout run troop. Our rich and unique history is what defines us as a troop and will continue on into the future!

2023: Founding members of Troop 3301 for girls

2023: Chartering of Troop 3301 for girls

In 2023, Troop 301 leaders and families wanted to extend the same leadership and character development that we have been providing to include girls in our families and community. 

Troop 3301 will operate as a linked troop to Troop 301. Each BSA Scouting unit will be independent unit leveraging shared resources in volunteers, committee, funding and  experience.

Our Future

Our future insures that the scouts in our troop grow by faith and by the principles of the Scout Oath and Law. We also strive and live by the Boy Scout Motto, “Doing a good turn daily.” 

Scouting founder Lord Baden-Powell once stated that “Scouting is a game with a purpose”

We firmly believe in that and apply it in our meetings and outings. Our troop is a Scout led troop which means that the Scouts make the plan and the adults assist.
