Upcoming Events


summer camp 2023
​
June 25-July 01
Camp Durant


Here are a few summer camp updates -


  • Campers, please remember to fill out the Google Form for Merit Badge selections by April 21.  Contact Mr. Nance and Mr. Nyka if you need the link or have questions.
  • The deadline to withdraw from camp is May 2.
  • It is still not too late to sign up for camp!  That goes for Scouts as well as AWs--it would be great to have 2-3 more adults at camp part of all of the week.
  • We are planning a visit to Camp Durant on either April 29 or May 13.  This will give new Scouts and their parents a chance to see the camp.  If you're interested in attending, please email Mr. Nance and Mr. Nyka with your date preference.  We haven't had much feedback yet.
  • The annual swim test and cookout will be Monday, May 22 at Lake Norman Yacht Club.  More details to come.
Remember May 2 is the deadline for withdrawing from camp with a full refund
If finances are an issue, scholarships are available through the troop. Please contact Mr. Raddant directly at troop171committechair@gmail.com to get more information.

Please contact Mr. Nance (troop171camp@gmail.com) or Mr. Nyka (marknyka@yahoo.com) with questions.

Scoutbook Updates
***IMPORTANT***
Attention parents - please complete your email and phone number emergency contact information within Scoutbook as soon as possible.

Now that we are using Scoutbook for records, it’s even more important to make it easy for leaders to reach parents by phone through this system.

Please reach out if you are still not connected to your scout.
2023 National JamboreeJuly 2023
Summit Bechtel Reserve


We will take a group of Scouts to visit the National Jamboree for one day, either Friday July 21st or Saturday July 22. We will have a discussion with those interested in attending to determine whether a Friday visit will be possible.

This event is open to all Scouts in Troop 171. Older Scouts will have opportunities to venture through to activities in the buddy system, younger Scouts will have an itinerary to follow with Scoutmaster Moore as a group.
 Please sign up using the link below if you are interested in going.  There will be a mandatory meeting on March 27 to go over the details.

​Intro to Backpacking TripMay 05-07

We are planning an introduction to backpacking trip on May 5-7.  The location is still being worked out, but will likely be Kings Mountain.

This backpacking trip will be geared toward new scouts as a first time backpacking adventure.  Older, more experienced scouts are welcome, and HIGHLY encouraged to come along to help guide the new guys.

All scouts on this trip will be expected to carry everything they will need for the entire weekend - tent, sleeping bag, food, etc.  


There will be a gear check meeting before this outing.  All first-timers will be expected to attend this meeting with their packs fully loaded so we can make sure the weight is correct, and that everything that will be needed in included.


Please sign up for this trip using the Scoutbook link below.
