Boy Scouting in Vicksburg, Michigan

Scouting provides many opportunities for you to learn new skills and adventures. Troop 251 offers Scouts of all ages a wide variety of activities throughout the year that will challenge your skills, like using wood tools (safely and responsibly), building campfires, signaling using morse or semaphore messages, first aid, stalking wild animals, basic cold weather survival skills, swimming, and knot tieing. Troop 251 focuses on community service, camping, hiking, and canoeing, but we also do things like rock-climbing, going to sporting events and play team laser-tag. Here are just some of the things we've done in the past couple of years:
