Our Patrol Leaders Council has put together an outstanding program for Troop 55. Ready for some action? Great! Our 2007/2008 season will have plenty of outdoor adventure, including backpacking, hiking, camping, sailing, fishing, skiing, theme parks, high adventure, and summer camp. We also will have our continuing programs in Adopt-a-Highway, Scouting for Food, and fundraising.
