TROOP 149

Every four years or so, Troop 149 undertakes what we have come to know as our "Big Trip".

The philosophy of this trip is to educate scouts, scouters, parents and friends of the

culture and activities of the rest of the world and to provide a "Service Project" if we can.

Our travels have taken us to Hawaii, Costa Rica and Europe.

Our next big trip is scheduled for the summer of 2011 and several destinations

have been talked about, some within the country, some overseas like Perú,

Brazil, Spain & Portugal, Colombia, Chile and Ireland. Our big trip committee has

been formed and we are in the process of evaluating the pros and cons of each

destination. The advances of the committee will be posted on this page
