Boy Scout Troop 93 is a very active troop, with many activities, special events and regular meetings scheduled each month. Please refer to our troop calendar regularly for information about meetings, overnights, and community service projects.
Generally, weekly meetings are held on Monday nights at VFW Post #2798 on Lincoln Avenue in Franklin Square. The meetings begin at 7:30 pm and end at 8:45 pm.
Scouts are expected to be in full uniform at all meetings (especially for Board of Review) and to remember to bring $1.00 weekly dues (even if you miss a meeting)
Please Note: We follow the Franklin Square school calendar. If school is closed or if school has been cancelled due to inclement weather, then there will be no Troop meeting.
We make every effort to keep our calendar up-to-date and keep Scouts and their parents informed. However, sometimes last-minute changes are necessary and we will attempt to contact you through phone-chain or e-mail to inform you as soon as possible.

Mon., Sept. 19, Family Kick-Off BBQ & Court of Honor. Thank you to the VFW and our Troop 93 families for their generosity. Our fundraising efforts were a huge success and we raised over $1,000 for the town of Windham and surrounding upstate communities affected by Hurricane Irene. We will remain in contact with Pastor Lenz and the Windham-Hensonville United Methodist Parish Church to find out how our Scouts may continue to provide assistance.

- The 100th Anniversary of Boys Scouts of America
- Geocaching coming soon...Geocaching has become a very popular Scouting activity across the country & around the world. (There are caches hidden at Yawgoog, for example). With a little planning ahead of time, this exciting activity can be incorporated into Troop overnight camping & hiking trips. For additional information about Geocaching, visit the Official Global GPS Cache Hunt website: http://www.geocaching.com/
