BSA TROOP 61  Delaware, Ohio

Sponsored by Asbury United Methodist Church

Welcome to our Web site!

Troop 61 is an active troop located in the Northwest neighborhood of Delaware, Ohio.

We are an active troop with outings scheduled for every month of the year.  Our Scouts LOVE to camp!  If this sounds fun, come join us!

Thanks to all the Scouts and leaders of our troop in earning the Quality Unit Award again this year.

Troop News...

Troops 61 and 701 were invited to participate in the plaque dedication of the first football game between OWU and OSU on May 3rd.  The troops presented and retired the U.S. and Ohio flags during the ceremony.
The weather threatened to wash out the celebration early on, but the clouds parted and the sun came out midway through the event.
Many celebrities were on hand; including Coach Cooper, Archie Griffin, and the presidents and bands from both universities.


 
On May 31st, Mr. Robinson, Joe, and Mr. Schluetz took a trip over to the Tuscarawas River to scout out our trip by canoe into Camp Tuscazoar in August .  The river exceeded our expectations. This trip will be a great time!
