About Us:

Scouts BSA is a year-round program for youth ages 11–17 designed to foster character, leadership, and personal growth through adventure and service. The Scouting America program opened to girls in February 2019. At Troop 42, girls take part in engaging activities that promote teamwork, responsibility, and essential life skills, with an emphasis on outdoor camping, cooking, and learning to work cooperatively with others.
