Thank you for interesting Troop 452 for your son Scouting experience and hopefully for yourself to be a member of what we feel is an outstanding organization.   Joining a Troop is a very simple process and we've made it even easier for you.  The links below take you to the forms needed on the BSA website to become a youth or adult member of the Troop.

The following information also details the training that is required by BSA for all adults before you can be a registered member of the Troop.  The training is not optional, but required for all adult members.  For your son, he has no training requirements, but a health form is needed.  The health forms are mandatory and critical for safety if you or your son want to participate in any Troop outings including summer camp.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact any of the leaders on the
