We are pleased that you are considering joining Boy Scout Troop 1932. It is our hope that you will find your time with Troop
1932 a rewarding and, most of all, fun experience in which to continue or begin your Scouting adventure.
We have an active program, attempting to camp one weekend out of each month and to schedule as many varied camping
locations and experiences as possible throughout the year. We encourage attendance at as many activities as you can make. If
you miss one camp out you may lose out on an advancement or merit badge opportunity that may not be offered again for
some time.
Our Troop meetings are planned by and for the Scouts, not adult leaders. This is your Troop and your responsibility to run it as
you feel will allow all of you to meet and exceed the scouting ideals. A Patrol Leader's Council (PLC) made up of Scouts
takes the lead in planning and executing our Troop program under the guidance of the Scoutmaster and assistant Scoutmasters.
We want your parent to be active as well! We have a variety of areas in which we need and would appreciate their
participation. We have a Troop Committee made up of parents and other adults to discuss and initiate planning for scouting
events, camp outs, facilitate transportation and fund raising necessary to help our troop go and support the final plans made by
the Patrol Leader's Council.
All parents are invited to participate the Troop. We encourage parents to consider a role in which they can best use their
talents and skills (i.e., Scoutmaster, Assistant Scoutmaster, Committee Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, Fund raising,
Advancement, Activities Chairs, Transportation, Merit Badge Counselors, or as an assistant to one of these positions). We
have found that in most cases the Scouts who have parents who take an active role in the Troop's leadership are the Scouts
who make a strong commitment to and get the most of their Scouting experience. There are training classes to get you started
from Fast Start, to Scoutmaster Fundamentals (North Star), to more advanced (Woodbadge) training. All of the current adults
started out where you are--so just jump right up and ask the Scoutmaster or Committee Chair how you can help.
Please contact our scoutmaster:
Or come to our meeting at 7:30 PM every Tuesday (except the Tuesdays after a camp out, contact the scoutmaster before
coming) at St. Barnabas United Methodist Church located at:
5011 West Pleasant Ridge, Arlington, Texas 76016.
