Scout Binder Contents

When a Scout joins Troop 22 we present him with his own Scout Binder.  This gives him a running start on staying informed and organized along his journey with Boy Scouts!  Some of the things in the binder are purchased at a store (paper, pens etc.); some of the things in the binder are stored in our Troop Documents File Box which is at every troop meeting; and some of the things in the binder can be downloaded from this website and printed.  Therefore YOU could make yourself a Scout binder with a little bit of work!  Most often you just want one particular document.  Here is a list of the contents of the Scout binder and where to find them
