TROOP MEETINGS ARE MONDAYS FROM 6:30-8:00PM
AT THE NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, AURORA ST, VALPARAISO

Bar

Welcome to the Troop 52 web page. Currently the site addresses our meeting plans and calendars. We hope to add pages for the patrols, activities, awards, and district events.

Troop 52 is a growing troop. Our charter began in May 1999 through Valparaiso's AmVets Post 78. We have developed a great relationship with our sponsors. We have worked together on flag ceremonies, food drives, and other projects. Pack 52 is also sponsored by the AMVETS. We work closely with the pack.

I am the Scoutmaster. I've been in scouts for over 25 years. I work with the scouts advancements- encouraging them to work on rank and merit badges. Our Assistant Scoutmasters work well with the scouts to oversee skills taught for ranks. Our committee chairman is Victoria Klamerus. She co-ordinates with the adult leaders for unit support.

The Patrol Leader's Council has an annual planning session to record what they want to do each month, then they review the specific troop meeting activities on a monthly basis. We are always recruiting. This is important since we are in a small town. We are always looking for new boys and adults to join us.

Information on meetings is shown above. A sample troop meeting is given below to give you a feel for our troop. The calendar and scout's year plan will show some of the activities we have done or are planning to do. If you are interested in any more information or would like to visit a troop meeting, email us! We'd be glad to hear from you.

Thanks for visiting, Bonnie Tierney
