Welcome

Welcome to the Troop 55 website. Troop 55 is chartered to Willard Community Center in Lincoln, NE.

Willard Lock In

Troop 55 is hosting second year WEBELOS from Pack 55 for the annual Willard Lock In at Willard Community Center on Saturday, March 24^th to the 25^th from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. The Boy Scouts will be assisting the WEBELOS in earning their Showman activity pin. Be ready to experience a fun filled night, and go home with more knowledge on Showmanship!

*There will be $5 Fee per person to participate in this event.

Games!

Scouts,

In an effort to increase the participation of the Patrols in the day-to-day running of the troop, we will start having the Patrols assume responsibility for the opening and closing ceremonies as well as the games.

The Patrol Leader will assume final responsibility, but that does not mean that any patrol member can't make a suggestion.

Please keep in mind that the games should reflect the values of Scouting including fairness and physical safety. Some of the games listed in the older Scouting materials are no longer acceptable. If it sounds like there's a possibility that somebody is likely to get hurt, you better ask first! You are WAY to young to be involved in a lawsuit!

For starters, we're going to ban the game "500." There are hundreds of other games. Use your resources and find something new!
