Troop 18

Welcome to Troop 18 of the Boy Scouts of America,
Andrew Jackson Council!

Chartered in 1922, Troop 18 is one of the oldest sponsored Boy Scout troops in America by the First Presbyterian Church. Troop 18 has the distinction of awarding over 230 Scouts the rank of Eagle since 1924.

The troop currently meets every Monday night during the school year from 7:00 to 8:15 p.m. (with a few exceptions) at the First Presbyterian Church Scout Room (3rd floor). Our typical Monday night meetings consist of learning Scout skills, working on advancement and merit badges and planning upcoming campouts and other activities. Troop 18 typically has at least one camping trip every month between September and April. Additionally, a group of Scouts attend the various Boy Scouts of America Summer Camps offered all across the country. We usually go to Camp Hood near Crystal Springs.

Scout Uniform Information:

Troop 18 Uniform Exchange (free, ongoing swap/shop). Courtney Love has collected scout uniforms and stored them in boxes in the scout room/office at the church. These uniforms are available to Troop 18 members at no charge. Just go during a scout meeting and search the box. Also, please consider donating any scout uniform items....shirts, belts, pants, shorts, kerchiefs, etc. You can add them to the box or drop them off at Luke Love's house (2423 Culleywood Road). Currently there are shorts (mostly small sizes), red Troop 18 shirts, and some pants available. If you need something, check the boxes. There is a sign-out sheet attached to the top. Contact Courtney Love with any thing you need or may have. Clove58@aol.com
