Do you know a preteen or teen who likes the outdoors? Want your daughter to learn some independence and responsibility? Welcome to BSA Scouting: fun with a purpose.

Scouts-BSA Troop 171 is having information sessions for new members on Wednesday, August 16 and 23 at 7 PM. If your daughter loves adventure and the outdoors, and is between the ages of 11 and 17, please join us to learn more about our program and meet our Scouts. This year’s activity schedule includes camping, canoeing, backpacking, orienteering, campfire cooking and more! Parents should plan on attending this meeting with their scout, as details on registration and safety will be presented.

For interested scouts of ALL ages and genders, there will be an Open House on August 20 from 2-4 PM. All three meetings will be held outside at the picnic shelter.

Additional information on Scouts-BSA Troop 171 can be found at www.indytroop171.org or by contacting Outreach Coordinator, Anne Shumaker.

Second Presbyterian Church is a sponsor of BSA Troop 171 and Troop 18.
