Welcome

Welcome to Troop 231's web site.
Please feel free to look around.
We are a ministry of Grace Fellowship Church.
Our Scout program is aimed at boys ages 11-18.
It provides boys a chance to be in the outdoors and have fun
while developing character, citizenship, and fitness.
Our outdoor activities include camping, hiking, kayaking, climbing, and bicycling.
Check out our Photo Gallery for pictures of our last fun event.
Troop meetings are each Monday night 7:00 - 8:30 p.m.
(unless otherwise noted in the calendar of events)
at the Scout Hut (lower level in the back) across the street from the church.
Contact Scoutmaster David Cowan at 678-521-0353 for more information.

Words of wisdom from our Scoutmaster...
Scoutmaster's Minutes and Other Thoughts
Scout Spirit
As a scoutmaster I review the scout's "scout spirit" at each advancement Scoutmaster Conference. But what is "scout spirit"
The first measure is the Scout Oath, Law, Motto, and Slogan. I wish I could ask each mom as the scout best expresses his scout spirit at home. But without that input I look at his relationships with his patrol leader and senior patrol leader. Is he quick to respond to expressed needs, does he look for opportunities to support the patrol efforts - Helpful, kind, obedient, "help others at all time" are best demonstrated in these relationships.
Next I look to relationships with new scouts - friendly, pride in the scout skills and in the troop are best seen as he reaches out to these new troop members. This current group of new scouts are the greatest and what a great opportunity to be a good scout in helping them.
The last thing I look at and the item I trust least is the scouts relationship with the leaders.

Thanks from the Summer Camp Leaders!
Thank you, parents, for the opportunity you have afforded us to learn, work, play and live together temporarily as a unit and to interact with scouts of other troops who also desire to live by the same code.

"Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children.

Training Talk
Got Training?
A new Boy Scout means a new opportunity for a parent to become a registered, trained Adult Leader. Check out our Adult Training page under Parents in the "Site Navigation" window on the left side of this page.
There are opportunities for you, and needs we need to fill, as an Assistant Scoutmaster or a Troop Committee member. Ask any ASM or Troop Committee member, or contact Linda Strow.
