Boy Scout Troop 162 - 75th Anniversary Celebration

North Hampton Boy Scout Troop 162 will be celebrating its 75th Anniversary on Sunday, May 24th, and is extending an invitation to all current and former scouts, scouters, merit badge counselors, families, and friends of Troop 162.

The agenda includes guest speakers, recognitions, memorabilia displays, games for the children, a memorial photo opportunity with past and present Troop members, plenty of time to reminisce and reconnect with old friends, as well as a barbeque dinner.

During its 75 years, Troop 162 members have enjoyed camping, kayaking, canoeing, biking, and fishing trips, attended summer camps, high adventure programs, Jamborees, and conferences, participated in countless hours of community service, elected scouts to the Order of the Arrow, scouting’s national honor society, as well as over 40 scouts have earned the highest rank in scouting, Eagle Scout.

Through the years there were many adults who served as scoutmasters, assistant scoutmasters, merit badge counselors, committee members, and supporters of the Troop and its activities. In addition, several local organizations served as the chartering organization, and several also provided meeting locations.

In addition to inviting anyone interested in attending the celebration, Troop 162 is looking for historical records and memorabilia from its 75 year history. Anyone with information should contact the webmaster at webmaster@troop162nh.org.
