Description
There have been several attempts during the decades to have a Scouting Troop in Melrose. The 50's, 60's, and 70's all had a troop, but they usually lasted only a few years. In December of 1979, after a lapse of Scouting in Melrose, several men held a meeting and started up a Boy Scout Troop once again. This troop would last for over 20 years.
Troop 68 of Melrose meets three times a month, on the first three Mondays of a month. They may take a month off in the summer, depending on their program schedule. In December, the troop will only have two regular meetings.
There is an outing each month. This may be a weekend camping trip during the summer, or a one day trip during a winter month. The troop does go to a week long summer camp every year, usually in July. The troop plans a high adventure trip every three years. These high adventure trips have included Philmont Scout Ranch, the High Knoll Trail, and the National Jamboree.
