Boy Scout Troop 168

Welcome

Thank you for visiting our web site! We hope you find what you’re looking for. Troop 168, at Chapel Hill United Methodist Church has been raising up leaders through Scouting since 1964. Hundreds of boys have come through our Troop and MANY went on to receive their Eagle and become upstanding leaders in our community. We teach the Scouting Values through our many activities and outtings. Lord Baden Powell called it, “Fun with a Purpose”.

We invite you to visit our Troop Meetings on Monday nights at 7:30 p.m. (Except for the Monday following a camp out). By visiting our Troop Meeting, you’ll meet our leaders and see us in action as we plan camping events and service projects. Better yet, you should join us on a camp out! Please contact our Scoutmaster, Mr. Jones, or our Committee Chairman, Mr. Cranford, if you have any questions.

2012 Swim Check

We will have our swim check for both summer camp and the canoe trip in late May on May 5th from 10am to noon at Lighthouse Fitness Center on Hefner Rd.

If you are going to summer camp or plan on going to the canoe trip you need to be at this swim check. This applies for both adults and Scouts. If you cannot make this swim check please email Mr. Cranford ASAP. This will be the only opportunity the Troop will provide to get certified.
