The Scout program is for boys who are 11 through 17 years of age.
About Troop 473:
Boy Scout Troop 473 was founded in 1981. We are proud of our affiliation with St. Joseph's Catholic Church, and of our nearly 70 boys who have achieved the rank of Eagle Scout, Scouting’s highest honor.
We meet on Thursday evenings from 7:15 to 8:30 p.m. On the second Thursday of each month, our Patrol Leaders Council (PLC) meeting takes place from 6:00 to 7:15 p.m., and on the third or fourth Thursday of each month, our Troop Committee meeting is held during the same timeframe. All meetings are held in the school cafeteria.
Our activities include monthly campouts, summer camps at BSA reservations, and high-adventure summer camps in such places as the Florida Keys and the mountains of West Virginia.
