Troop 29's Eagle Honor Roll Expands
In Scouting the eagle stands for strength of character, and for knowledge of all phases
of Scouting. The eagle represents an understanding of community and nation, and a deep
respect for same. The eagle is a symbol of what a young man has done as well as what that
young man will do, and will be, when he grows to manhood. The eagle is a leader. The eagle
is respected, both by his peers and by his adult leaders.
Troop 29 salutes its latest eagles.

Troop 29's New Tent
The PLC has decided that the Extreme 3 Outfitter by ALPS Mountaineering will be our official Troop 29 tent. And, as a result of our successful Pancake Breakfast we have purchased 20 of them. If everything works as planned our troop Quartermaster will have them checked out and ready for use on our Ice Fishing weekend at the end of the month!
Good job boys! Next we need to work on funding camp gear and outtings!
Guess Who's an Eagle Scout
You never know who was an Eagle Scout. For those of you who don't know Mike Rowe he is the
star of the Discovery Channel's Dirty Jobs. He's also an Eagle Scout with some pointed words to a
young scout who was planning to quit scouts because the young man thought it wasn't "cool" to be a scout.
Mike tells it to this scout straight. Read on....
Welcome to Troop 29
Troop 29 has been serving the youth of the Red Clay Creek and Pike Creek Valleys for over 55 continuous years. Based at the Red Clay Creek Presbyterian Church, we offer a fantastic Scouting program to boys aged 11 to 18. Our focus is to develop Leadership, encourage citizenship and a passion for the outdoors in each and every scout that is a member of our Troop.
Troop 29 meets every Monday from 7pm to 8:30pm year round. Additionally, we strive to provide a camping weekend every month for our scouts, and try to have at least one High-Adventure activity per year for the older scouts.
Interested in our Troop? Then please feel free to stop by at any Monday Troop meeting.
