Welcome to Troop 95 located in Sussex, Wisconsin
Scoutmaster's Message:
Hello and welcome to the BSA Troop 95 Web site. My name is David Norton and
I am the Scoutmaster of Troop 95 in Sussex, Wisconsin. Scouting is a
program designed to prepare young people to make moral and ethical decisions
throughout their life by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and
Scout Law. We, the youth and adult leaders of this Troop, embrace this
mission with eagerness and enthusiasm.
Some of the things we focus on as a
Troop help us in achieving this mission:
-
We are a boy led troop. The scrambled eggs on a
campout Saturday morning may be a little runny. The meetings may seem
chaotic to the untrained eye. We are a boy led Troop, warts and all. But
we recognize that there is no better way to teach leadership than to
practice by doing. Sometimes we may fail, many times we succeed
tremendously, but every time, we learn valuable lessons.
-
Camping. Scouting is meant to occur outdoors.
In this environment, we learn how to be prepared and how to be both self
reliant and how to work as a team. We try to plan a weekend camping
opportunity at least once a month. We have camped on the beaches of the
Florida Keys, fought horseflies as big as your head in the Boundary Waters
of Minnesota, pitched our tents on a sandbar in the middle of the
Wisconsin River, and spent nights in caves with bats hibernating above our
heads. These are the experiences that the boys will remember and carry
with them long after their brief time with us.
-
Advancement. If success is measured by outcomes,
there can be no debating our success as a Troop. In the last year alone,
we have had three boys attain the rank of Eagle Scout, a feat only 5% of
Boy Scouts can claim. But we are not an “Eagle Factory”. We recognize
that advancement is a tool that enables young people to challenge
themselves, set goals, and work hard to achieve them. Having boys earn
their Eagle rank is not a direct goal of ours, but rather a natural result
of our commitment to the Scouting program.
On behalf of all of the Scouts of our
Troop, and our dedicated adult leaders, we welcome you to Troop 95. I hope
you find the information presented in this website useful and informative.
If you would like more information, or are interested in joining Scouts and
are located in the Sussex, WI area, please call me at (262) 373-0770.
