Franklin Township Boy Scout Troop 113 is on the move again and ready to serve you!
On Saturday, September 5th, 2020, Troop 113 kicked off our 54th Scouting Season and we are expecting a very busy year since five of our members will be aging out of the program and on their way to earning the illustrious Eagle Scout Rank by the end of June 2021.
Becoming an Eagle Scout is the highest status that a Scout can achieve over the course of his scouting career, which typically begins in Cub Scouts at the age of six, and continues on to Boy Scouts beginning at age 11. Each candidate is required to complete a rigorous, challenging syllabus of merit badges. There are over 120 merit badges a Scout can earn based on their various interests and 21 of these are required to rank up to Eagle. These merit badges are attained by learning important life and leadership skills within a safe setting (i.e. “Cooking”) as they begin to understand what it means to be a good citizen in our community, in our nation and in our world.
