Troop 244

Be Prepared. Troop 244 Does More!

Prepare yourself for adventure – the adventure of a lifetime.
Welcome to the website for Scout Troop 244, in Portage, Michigan.

Scouting is an adventure that offers boys and girls an abundance of outdoor experiences including camping, hiking, climbing, caving, canoeing, sailing, rafting, and kayaking. Along the way, they learn the skills necessary to face challenges in the field as well as in daily life; as the Scout motto puts it, “Be Prepared.”

If you are a troop member, or a parent or family member of a troop member, refer to the News and Calendar pages.

If you are not already a member of the troop, please check out the the About Us and Pictures pages. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact any of the parent leaders, or feel free to join us any Tuesday evening for our regular troop meeting.

Whether you’re a newcomer, a current member, or an alumnus of the troop, please visit our web site often. We think you’ll agree that Troop 244 Does More!
