Event Gallery
Below are all of the events we have had in recent years. Troop 408 enjoys going on campouts and other activities to bond with each other and nature. During campouts, they learn skills such as fire starting and first aid, and sign off requirement after requirement on their journey to Eagle. They learn to lead others and themselves, and do their duty to the country, God, the people around them, and themselves. They learn the core aspects of a good person during service projects, where they do good to the natural environment and their community. Overall, Troop 408 spends countless days each year with each other, fostering good relationships with fellow scouts, learning useful skills they can use in life, and most importantly, having fun and making happy memories.
