Roseville, CA--Scouts BSA Troop 11
Scouts BSA
Troop Meetings:
The Troop meets each Wednesday from 7:00 p.m. until 8:15 p.m. in the lower hall at the Veterans Hall at Royer Park in Roseville. Troop meetings concentrate on skill development, patrol involvement, competition, games, and fun activities. The Patrol Leaders' Council plans each meeting around a specific theme. All patrols are responsible for setting up and taking down the Hall. At 8:15 p.m., the Troop concludes its meetings with “circle time” where Scouts and their parents can get updated on upcoming events and other matters. This short gathering provides parents with an opportunity to hear and obtain clarifications about Troop activities and issues.
Troop Committee
The Scoutmaster and assistants provide adult leadership for the Troop and help the Scouts to select, organize, and conduct their activities. Additionally, the Troop has a Troop Committee – a sort of “board of directors” that approves, oversees, and helps conduct the Troop's Scouting program. All parents of Scouts are invited to join the Troop Committee, and we highly recommend that a parent of each Scout attend the monthly committee meetings which are held on the second Wednesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. Our Troop is sponsored by the American Legion Post 169. The American Legion Post provides us with a place to meet and other assistance as needed. Our liaison to the American Legion Post is the Chartered Organization Representative. Finally, there is an extensive Scout organization above the Troop level made up of both volunteer and professional Scouters who help conduct the Scouting program.
Youth Protection and Safety
BSA has an extensive set of guidelines concerning safety in the Scouting program and Scouting has an excellent safety record. Also, youth protection guidelines require that at least two adults must be present at all Scouting activities and under no circumstances will an adult be left one on one with a Scout who is not their Scout. Likewise, Scouts participating in activities where they will be meeting with an adult (e.g. merit badge counselor) must bring a buddy along or the activity cannot take place.
