As a Boy Scout Troop 212 and Cub Scout Pack 212, Tri-B Scouts get the opportunity to experience new things, participate in Scouting events, and work towards becoming good citizens while earning badges. The highest honor the boys can receive in Boy Scouts is Eagle Scout status, which helps when applying for jobs, schools, and scholarships. Both Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts meet weekly to explore topics in leadership, goal-setting, and community with an emphasis on service.
