Welcome to Scouting America Troops 900B & 900G
Our two troops share a united spirit of adventure and service while maintaining their own identities. Troop 900B and Troop 900G often team up for exciting outdoor adventures, community projects, and skill-building activities—but they also operate as separate troops, giving each group the opportunity to pursue their own goals, leadership paths, and unique experiences. Together, they embody the true spirit of Scouting: teamwork, growth, and leadership through shared values and individual journeys.

Advancement and Awards

Scouting provides a series of surmountable obstacles and steps in overcoming them through the advancement method. Scouts plan their own advancement and progress at their own pace as they meet each challenge. Scouts are recognized and rewarded for each achievement, which helps them gain self-confidence. The steps in the advancement system help a Scout grow in self-reliance and in the ability to help others.

Advancement is the process by which youth members of Scouting America progress from rank to rank and is the method by which we promote and encourage the ongoing involvement and commitment that keeps members coming back for more. It works best when it is built into a unit’s program so that simply participating leads to meaningful achievement and recognition—and to a continually improving readiness for more complex experiences.
