Tonight, we received confirmation on the dates for the next National Jamboree. 

Scouts and Ventures' from across Michigan will join in an adventure of a lifetime.  The Jamboree will be held at Boy Scouts of America’s world-class facility, Summit Bechtel Reserve in West Virginia on July 19 – 28, 2023.

Below is a shortlist of the Jamboree activities that await you:

• 5 miles of zip lines and challenge courses
• 36 miles of mountain biking trails and BMX tracks
• 13 acres of shooting sports ranges (shotgun, rifle, and archery)
• Whitewater rafting, kayaking, paddle boarding, and scuba diving
• Climbing walls and repelling
• Mountain boarding and skateboarding
• STEM activities
• Patch trading and making friends with Scouts and Ventures' from across the country and around the world
• World-class entertainment at stadium shows
• Merit badge opportunities
• Group and individual leadership training

If you're interested, submit your name and email address here: National Jamboree – Michigan Crossroads Council | Boy Scouts of America (michiganscouting.org)  to be kept informed of our plans. 

Troop 755 will take a contingent to Jambo 23 and we will schedule summer camp earlier than normal to put some distance between it and Jambo, so interested scouts can do both.  Look for Summer camp to replace the regular June camp out.  

Please join us on Sunday, September 26th at 6pm - Mill Race Village Church for Markus Budweg's Eagle Court of Honor.  Refreshments following ceremony.  

As a public entity we sometimes are asked for our opinions on matters of policy.  One thing we think we all can get behind is ensuring Maybury State Park continues to be the jewel that it is and one improvement that is long overdue is road and parking lot resurfacing.  Please see the letter from our troop to the MDNR in support of that effort. 

If you are in high school or are 14+ (even in 8th grade) come check out our Venture Crew!

We do regular scouting events, plus a number of shorter events (disc golf, mountain biking, etc.)
First Crew Meeting is 6:30pm on Monday Sep 20 at Waterford Bend (before the Troop Meeting)

Here are the Merit Badges for Session A (Sep 20-Oct 18 for 5 Troop meetings)

Personal Management  (Eagle Required)

Family Life & Scholarship (Eagle Required)

We need a preliminary count for scouts attending the September camp out.  We need your full participation! The "rush" to get a roster is to order patches, staves and medallions, which will be really cool to use during the camp out.  If you're late to register, yes you can go, but the "stuff" might not get to you until after the camp out.  So plan ahead and sign up by September 6.

Your scoutmaster has contacted everyone  and they know of this deadline.  It should be a great time.

Details on the Calendar here.      You can register up to one week prior to camp.
