Dwight is a member of Troop III of which Howell Stroup is Scoutmaster; David and Howard are members of Troop II of which Rev. George I,. Riddle is Scoutmaster.

In harmony with the Scout principal of “learing by doing.” a Scout is encouraged to spiritual achievement in the Church Awards plan by the ful fillment of practical projects that tie him closelv to the program of religions education and the youth activities of hic own church.
