Help us finish Jake Revere’s Eagle Project!

The Scouts of Troop 6 have overwhelmingly decided to complete Jake’s Eagle Leadership Project that was very close to being started.  A major portion of the Project was to raise funds to purchase materials, supplies and exercise equipment for two workout stations at Nockamixon State Park.

Donations are appreciated and checks can be made payable to “Troop 6 Jake’s Eagle Project” and mailed to

Summer Camp Medical Forms Due!

Don’t wait until the last minute to get your medical form in for summer camp (even if you are not going to summer camp the Troop needs an updated Class 3 Medical Form from all Scouts!  Click on ‘Forms’ to print-out a Class 3 BSA Medical Form.  (Scouts completing a Philmont Medical Form can use that for summer camp).  Remember, we MUST have a current medical form on file for all Scouts in order to attend campouts.

Troop 6 REALLY Does Need Committee Members & Leaders!

This year Troop 6 will award the honor of Eagle Scout to at least 5 Scouts.  Ever wonder how we have accomplished this and 35 Eagles since 2000?  Of course it required dedicated Scouts.  However, it requires the support structure behind the Scout – meaning enough Committee Members to share the responsibilities as well as enough uniformed leaders.  WE NEED BOTH AT THIS TIME!  Most of our adult leaders and committee are parents of older Scout that have recently turned 18 or will soon.  If you want the same excellent program for your son as those before him went, then look in the mirror as THAT is where our future support lies!!

Scoutmaster’s Message:

Recently we lost a beloved brother of Troop 6, Jake Revere.  His presence is and will most certainly be missed forever and we are grateful for Jake’s dedication, thoughtfulness and the overall positive impact he had on all our lives as was shared in the Memorial Service our Scouts conducted for Jake. 

I am proud of our Scouts and very proud and touched by how everyone has come together to support the Revere family and the Troop 6 family and to turn this loss into something positive to do good.  The Brotherhood of Scouting has truly been demonstrated by our Scouts, leaders, families and countless Scouts and Scouters throughout the Bucks County Council and beyond.

Our Scouts have pledged to complete Jake’s Eagle Leadership Project as one of the many ways to honor Jake and his memory.  They also created the Jake Memorial neckerchief and soon to be released neckerchief patch. 

I believe Jake is smiling as he sees all of us come together in such a unified manner for the benefit of Scouting and our community.  If there is a silver lining in this dark cloud, it is that we have all come together a bit closer and have rededicated our lives to support the Timeless Values of Scouting and all that is good in this world.

On behalf of Troop 6, thanks to all and remember to keep the Revere’s in your thoughts and prayers and Jake always in our hearts.

Yours in Scouting,
Bob Cull
