Welcome!

Welcome to the Troop 244 Website!

Do you like adventure? Do you want to learn outdoor skills and know how take care of yourself and others in the wilderness? Do you want to lead others, learn new skills and serve those in need in your community? Do you want to cook over a campfire with your friends while breathing in fresh air and listening to the wind in the trees overhead?  Does hiking to a stream, taking off your shoes and jumping in sound like fun?  Would you dare kayak 50 miles down a river knowing you have been taught everything you need to know to do it? Will you feel proud after carrying a meal you planned in your backpack for 5 miles then cooking it for your friends on the trail? Will you build a fort in the woods and sleep in it, knowing you've built it well?

Troop 244 can show you the path to fly like an Eagle. We are seeking interested young men, of any faith from any school to join us in our journey. Visit us on Tuesday nights from 6:30-8:00 at Saint Pius X School to learn more. Please select "Send Email" to request more information.

The NeighborWoods Community Tree Planting program is designed to help restore the tree cover in Greensboro by planting trees in neighborhoods and open space. This program is funded by private donations and grants to Greensboro Beautiful, and is accomplished with the help of hundreds of volunteers of all ages and abilities working alongside City staff as part of a unique public/private partnership. Groups, clubs, families, and individuals are encouraged to participate in this event. It provides a hands-on opportunity to invest in the City’s natural environment, reconnect with nature, and work with other members of the community. You can feel proud that your contribution will continue to grow and beautify Greensboro for years to come.
