Some things To Know About The Troop
Troop 284 meets at the First Presbyterian Church of Irwin on Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8:00. Right now we have 33 scouts. Our troop is known to be very active. We go on an outdoor trip each month including hiking, camping, canoeing, rafting, biking, and a lot more. We also have creative fundraisers such as selling Christmas trees, mulch sales, luminaria sales, hoagie sales, Pie Shoppe Pie sales and holiday flower sales. Anybody interested in learning more about Troop 284 should contact Glenn Dzaack.
