Thanks for visiting Troop 97, based in Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania.

Here you'll find useful information and resources about our troop - as a scout, a leader or a parent. Some helpful links include, where to buy uniforms, getting information about merit badge requirements, what to bring camping, and other stuff.

We are part of the Washington District in the Cradle of Liberty Council

You can also view the many scouting groups in our area on BeAScout.org.

Founded in 1984, Troop 97 has served hundreds of youth in our area through weekend adventures, weeks at summer camp and high adventure, leadership opportunities, and enough camaradarie to fill all the hearts around the warm campfire.

40 years! Can you believe it? We now have scouts whose parents were once youth in our troop. And we are so lucky to have so many of the formative leaders still involved. Add to that the amazingly supportive community that we thrive in - and serve in return - and you have an amazing combination that continues to strengthen our troop.
