SSA TROOP 3

A Boy's Introduction

Welcome to Boy Scout TROOP 3! Our troop is sponsored by Spiritus Sanctus Academy (Plymouth).  Our aim is to help you to stay healthy in body, mind and spirit, to help you grow into manhood strong in your faith as a Roman Catholic, to become a good citizen, and to help you become a strong individual. We do all this through the troop’s outdoor program which means we spend time doing fun stuff outdoors like camping, backpacking and swimming. As we follow our outdoor program, we work together using something called the Patrol Method”.

The patrol is a basic group in which you work and where your vote counts in making decisions about your patrol, our troop and our outdoor program. The boys, as patrol members, lead each patrol and the troop! This is called being “boy led”. The adult leaders don’t do anything for us that we can do ourselves; they are here to help us and advise us as we grow in and advance through the Scouting program.

The introduction below will help you, as a new Boy Scout, become familiar with the Scouting program in Troop 3. It will not, of course, teach you all there is to know about our troop. So, when you have a question, please just ask your Patrol Leader, the Troop Guide, or your Patrol Advisor (the Assistant Scoutmaster who works with your patrol). They are all here to help.
