Scouting America Troop 406 Plantation

Scouting America Troop 406 Plantation Troops 406 B and G are units in the Sawgrass District of South Florida Council. We have a youth-run program! We are sponsored by First Church West of Plantation.

We currently have Troop 406 B for male participants and Troop 406 G for female participants. Troop 406 is a unit in the Sawgrass District of South Florida Council. We have troops for male and female youth ages 11-18. We meet weekly during the school year on Wednesdays at 7:00PM at the Lauderdale Lakes Moose Lodge. Troop meetings are 2 hours long and are used to review Scout skills, plan scout ac

tivities and have fun. Troop 406 is a youth-run troop with elected Patrol Leaders and Senior Patrol Leaders. We use the patrol method, where groups of scouts work together within the scouting program to learn responsibility, teamwork and leadership. A Scouts BSA troop contains a much wider and diverse spectrum of levels of maturity. We have young new scouts, and mature scouts who, in reality, are not kids anymore but are young adults ready for transitions of their own. The older scouts' role within our troops is to help teach the younger scouts the skills needed for rank advancement. Here at Troop 406 we work under, and apply the Scout oath, law, motto and outdoor code to all our activities.

📊 New Eagle Scout Study Released

Scouting America has released a major new research study:
“Eagle Scouts: A Legacy of Values-Based Leadership and Service.”

Conducted by The Harris Poll, the study examined the long-term impact of Scouting and the Eagle Scout experience on leadership, service, character, well-being, and civic engagement.

Among the findings:
⭐ 99% of Eagle Scouts say Scouting had a positive influence on their lives
⭐ Eagle Scouts report higher levels of leadership, purpose, gratitude, and community involvement
⭐ Non-Scouts overwhelmingly recognize the positive impact Scouting has on youth and society

The study also found Eagle Scouts are more likely to:
✔ Volunteer and lead in their communities
✔ Value honesty, responsibility, and service
✔ Maintain strong family and community relationships
✔ Spend time outdoors and practice environmental stewardship
✔ Live by the values found in the Scout Oath and Law

🌎 This research highlights the lasting impact Scouting can have on young people, families, and communities.
