Scouting America Girl Troop 711 Open House

Troop 711 is recruiting girls ages 11-17 from surrounding areas

Troop 711 in Milford is a Girl Troop with Scouting America, formerly the Boy Scouts of America. We started two years ago and have been having fun ever since. Allowing girls in scouting 7 years ago started my journey as an adult leader in scouting. It has been an amazing experience. As current scoutmaster of Troop 711 I am so proud to watch the girls learn outdoor skills, gain leadership experience and work as a team in tough situations. I have a daughter that has been in scouts since she was 5 and I have seen her transform into a confident, self aware leader who is still growing and adapting. Scouting morals have helped our family give our children a foundation of trust, kindness and loyalty. If you have a daughter who may benefit from what scouting can bring them, come check us out. We are having an open house on September 29th at 7pm at the Margaret Egan Center in Milford. If needed contact me at scoutmastergirltroop1@gmail.com so we can find a time for you to visit. I look forward to meeting you.
