Troop 444 had a blast clamming and making authentic New England Clam Chowder at Chaffinch Island Park. Special thanks to the Guilford Shellfish Commission for all their hard work and stewardship!

🛶 Last week Troop 444 started the summer with a 4.5 mile canoe trip down the East River and a campout on Jacob’s Beach!

The weather was perfect, the Scouts made their meals at the beach, and they built a bonfire for s’mores. No better way to launch the summer!

The Quiet Force Behind Troop 444, Mr Dietz:

While the public marveled at the rope bridge during our Strawberry Social, few probably realized it was Mr Dietz’s decades of Scouting knowledge that helped make it happen.

Mr Dietz has spent more than 45 years in Scouting, 35 years of those as a leader! Long after his own sons aged out of the program, he continues to regularly show up for Troop 444 teaching knots, demonstrating the EDGE method, mentoring youth leaders, and sharing the skills that can’t be learned by reading the handbook alone.

Thank you for all you do, Mr Dietz. The troop is stronger because of you! ⚜️

🍓 Thank you, Guilford, for another great Strawberry Social!

We were overwhelmed by the support shown for our Scouts and the school jazz bands, and we loved seeing neighbors, friends, and families come together to enjoy a beautiful day on the Green.

One of the highlights was hearing so many stories about Strawberry Socials from years gone by and memories of Scouting in our town. Those conversations reminded us how special these traditions are and how they connect generations of community members.

Today we remember the men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for America.

On Saturday, Troop 444 assisted the VFW in laying flags at the graves of Guilford’s veterans. This small act of service reminds us that freedom is never free.

Last weekend, Troop 444 took part in America's Semiquincentennial Camporee at Camp Workcoeman!

Scouts completed 12 different challenges to help gather intel for General Washington in his fight for independence. The adults also participated, but as loyalists(!), to decode Benedict Arnold's cipher.

When they weren’t busy fighting for freedom, our Scouts were cooking up meals the Continental Army would’ve happily traded rations for.
