We are pleased to offer this resource to all members of the Troop 100 Family. If you are looking for information about Troop 100 we invite you to read about our troop in the About Us page and use the Contact Us page if you have more questions.
Troop 100 has been guiding young men for 60 years and making an impact on their lives as they in turn make an impact on the community through their progress in the Scouting program. Today Troop 100 has had over 160 Eagle Scouts join the ranks of so many before them and we look forward to having you join them as you set your sights on your future growth.
Troop Note - Many ranks, merit badges, awards, and badges of office have been presented in the troop over the last two weeks. If help is needed in sewing these on uniforms or merit badge sashes, or hemming Scout pants; Marge Balesteri (Marge's Mending) is available to help at very reasonable rates and has assisted the Scouts for years. Call Marge at 541-255-8300 for an appointment at this home business.
