EVENTS

Troop 49 had a great time at Summer Camp in 2025!

​

Our Scouts had a lot of fun, make new friends, learned a lot of new things and earned a slew of new merit badges.

​

We will once again in 2026 be going during "Week 3" which will have us there during July 4th holiday.

Fundraisers

Troop 49 does a few different fundraisers each year to help both the Scout earn some money and for the Troop.

 

We sell camp cards for $10, where the Scout gets half back to put towards their annual dues or for summer camp.

​

We sell popcorn and nuts, where a portion goes back to the Scout and the Troop. 

​

Lastly, in conjunction with Back Creek Church Student Ministry are have a plant sale.

​​

More information will be forthcoming as each fundraiser gets closer to starting.

HIGHLIGHTS

Congratulations to Bradley Ortolano

Bradley recently finished his Eagle Scout Project at Back Creek Church, where Troop 49 meets.

​

Bradley's project was a continuation of another Eagle Scout project, continuing to build retaining wall along a large section of the church property. â€‹â€‹Along with building the wall, the project entailed cleaning up the area, removing weeds, shrubs and trees, leveling the ground, adding new mulch and spray painting the electrical box. 

​

Bradley is now off at college at UNC Asheville and will have his Scoutmaster Conference very soon! 

 

Congratulations to Bradley!
