Boy Scout Troop 9 has been established in the Burncoat/Greendale neighborhood of Worcester since 1959, and has provided the Scouting program to more than 2,000 youths ages 11 – 17 in that time span. Our adult volunteers come from all segments of the Worcester community and beyond, and many of them have their roots as Norton Company employees . Our volunteers impart the Scouting values and code of
ethics upon our youth while at the same time teaching them Scouting skills through our program of outdoor camping and high adventure. Our Scouts are also taught the value of helping others, and have performed hundreds of hours of community service for area non- profit organizations as well as environmentally-oriented projects. Recently, our Troop marked its’ 63rd anniversary as an all-boy Troop. Over the course of our history we have been a stable force in the neighborhood, with only six Scoutmasters serving over 62 years cumulatively. Our current adult leadership possesses nearly 180 years of collective Scouting experience, and most of our current adult leadership grew up in the Troop as youth. Thus, our Troop has proven their sustained commitment to the community and we look forward to a long and productive future in the Burncoat/Greendale neighborhood.
