OUR TROOP
Who We Are
We have proudly served the youth in Greenwood, SC and the surrounding communities for over 50 years. Our goal is to ensure that each scout in our care is instilled with the value and traditions of the Boy Scouts of America and to "Be Prepared" for the future.
LEADING YOUTH TO LIFELONG VALUES
As the "Troop On The Go," we enjoy at least one outing per month. Outings range from Camping, Backpacking, Hiking, Canoeing, Rock Climbing, Caving, Snow Tubing, etc.
What We Offer
We offer the opportunity for young men to learn leadership in a safe environment. Leadership skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.
Troop 270 has a wonderful group of knowledgeable adult leaders. Meeting nights are filled with games, rank advancement, scout skills, and fun.
Uniform and Insignia of the Boy Scouts
A uniform tells a lot about a scout. The uniform is deiveded into 4 sections.
1. The right sleeve shows what part of the world the scout serves. Boy scouts in the U.S. have an American flag emblazened upon the left sleeve.
2. The right sleeve shows what of the country the scout serves. The sleeve contains the insignia of the council and the troop number. It also has the insignia of the position of leadership and if the scout is "Trained" for that position.
3. The Right side of the uniform has the Order Of The Arrow Lodge flap and any patch typically from the latest District or Council wide event.
4. The Left side of the uniform has the scout's rank and the World Crest.
