Welcome to the Woodward Academy Troop 631 United website! On paper, there is a separate Troop for young men and has been one for young women (we hope to renew sometime in 2023 with 5 new youth members), but the Scouts here have opted to unite as a single operating Troop under one set of leaders.
For an overview of Scouting, watch this video. Or this one. For contact information, please see About Us and How to Join on the menu bar on the left side of the page. Interested in Joining? You can contact the Scoutmaster or Troop Committee Chair. In Scouts BSA, recognition is gained through leadership in the troop, attending and participating in its activities, living the ideals of Scouting, and proficiency in activities related to outdoor life, useful skills, and career exploration. The methods of Scouting are Ideals, Patrols, Outdoor Programs, Advancement, Association with Adults, Personal Growth, Leadership Development and the Uniform, and each is important. See our Troop Handbook for How We Scout in Troop 631.
Once you Login, you can access calendar information among other benefits. Troop events for the 2023-24 program year will include a Rafting Campout in August (with Horseback Riding, Ziplining and Mountain Bike options), a September Campout at "Project Chimp", October Shooting Sports Campout, November Cycling Day, December Climbing Lock In Overnight, January Trees Atlanta Project for MLK Day of Service, February Caving Campout, March Art Immersion at the Center for Puppetry Arts, April "COPE" Campout (Challenging Outdoor Personal Experience ... think ropes course and more), May Community Service, June Trip to Washington DC and July Week at Summer Camp and more.
