Summer Camp 2021 - Camp Squanto

Hello Troop 20!

Hello everyone!  We're very happy to report that it's looking like summer camp will be open this year and Troop 20 is looking at attending the first full week of August (Aug 1-7) at Camp Squanto, Plymouth.

For our new Scouts and their families, Camp Squanto affords our Scouts the opportunity to earn merit badges and participate in activities such as swimming, sailing, kayaking, crafts, survival skills, archery, and cooking....to name just a few.  It also gives them opportunities to build lasting friendships with other Scouts and build stronger ties with the Scouts in Troop 20.

IMPORTANT!  We are estimating the cost for the week of summer camp will be $490 per Scout but this year, the Troop will be kicking in $100 for every Scout who attends, lowering the cost to $390/Scout.

For anyone going to camp this year, we will need a $100 deposit at our next Troop meeting on May 6th. Full payment will be due at a later date To Be Announced. Please make all checks payable to 'Troop 20'.

We will also be needing leaders and adults to attend the week of summer camp in order for our Scouts to attend.  We do have some flexibility so that coverage can be broken up by nights or a couple of days, but we need a commitment for coverage.  If you can help provide leadership coverage, please contact any leader at the Troop meeting.

Additional details will be forthcoming as we firm things up so stay tuned.

Committee Meeting, Thursday 4/29 - 6:00PM

 Hello Troop 20!

There will be a committee meeting this Thursday at 6:00pm at Sacred Heart Parish Hall.  We will have our regular weekly Troop Meeting from 7:00 - 8:30pm.

Troop Meeting - Thursday 4/29 7:00 - 8:30PM / Sacred Heart Parish Hall

 Hello Troop 20!

We hope everyone enjoyed the April break to get some rest and hopefully have some fun.  We are happy to report that currently, the town of Middleborough has dropped back into the yellow zone for COVID risk levels and as such, we have been given permission to use the Parish hall.  So, that said:

There will be a Troop Meeting this Thursday, April 29th at 7:00PM at Sacred Heart Parish Hall!  Please note that we are returning to our regular meeting time of 7:00-8:30PM.

Please remember that we line up for our opening ceremony at 7:00PM so you need to plan to be at the hall about 10 minutes earlier.  Please arrive wearing your Class A uniform and have a mask.

Also, please remember that all Scouts should be bringing their Scout Handbooks and backpacks to every Troop meeting.  For new Scouts, we can cover what you'll need for your Troop meeting backpack.

Upcoming Events:

4/29	At this week's Troop meeting, we are planning to set up and inspect our Troop tents so that we can assess their condition.  We haven't been able to use them in quite some time so we need to make sure they are clean and serviceable.
5/2	The Troop will be participating in a mulch spreading fundraiser on Sunday, May 2nd at 1:00PM.  The work will take place at 16 Renwick Drive, Norton, MA.
TBD	Camping - Currently, the state is not granting permission for any camping activities so our camping trip is postponed until such time that the state will allow us to return to the campgrounds.  We will try to keep everyone apprised as we learn more.

Help Needed After Troop Meetings:  In order for us to return to the Parish Hall, we are going to need 2-3 volunteers (Scouts and/or leaders) to stay after the meeting for a short period of time and help us sanitize the hall.  We also need sanitation supplies, as the church does not provide those for us, so any donations would be greatly appreciated.

We look forward to seeing all of Scouts this Thursday back at

Sacred Heart Parish Hall!

Camping Trip to be re-scheduled

Hello Troop 20!

Unfortunately, we are going to have to re-schedule the camping trip we were trying to plan for this weekend.  The state has not yet granted us permission to camp so we will have to look for another date once things start to open up a little more.  Please stay tuned for more information as we sort out details.

Again, we apologize for any disappointment but we need to follow the state guidelines.

Mulch Spreading Fund Raiser - May 2nd, 1:00PM

 Hello Everyone!

The Troop will be participating in a mulch spreading fundraiser on Sunday, May 2nd at 1:00PM.  The work will take place at 16 Renwick Drive, Norton, MA.

Scouts are asked to please bring a wheelbarrow and pitch fork for moving the mulch if possible.  They should also bring a full water bottle and work gloves.

This is a great opportunity for those Scouts who show up, to earn money in their Scout accounts as well as earning important community service hours needed for rank advancement.  We anticipate earning over $300 for an afternoon of work.

If you are able to attend, we will have a sign-up sheet at our next Troop meeting.

Thank You!

Wayne Cash - Eagle Scout Service Project Tuesday, 4/20 & Thursday 4/22 from 8:00AM to 2:00PM
