Parent Committee Meetings:

 Are held the Monday after a weekend outing from 7:00 – 8:30 PM at the Lutheran Church of the Incarnation. Troop 688 is committed to maintaining a boy-led troop. Scouts have the advantage of learning by doing. They are encouraged to become independent and responsible by trying new things, developing and applying new skills and supporting one another. The Patrol Leader Council (PLC) plans and executes all troop meetings and is also responsible for elections and management of troop officers and patrols. Patrols are organized loosely by age, rank, and ability level, with all younger patrols led by a senior member of the Troop. The Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmasters guide and mentor the scouts. Their focus is to provide specialized training and the final authority in matters of safety and conduct. The parents’ committee meets monthly in lieu of the regular troop and attends to the business aspects of the troop. All parents are asked to attend and participate by volunteering in parent committee activities. No regular (monthly) dues are required and most outings have nominal costs.
