Welcome To Our Website!
Troop 1 and Pack 1 are great places for boys. We would love to have you at our Boy Scout and Webelo meetings on TUESDAY NIGHTS at 7 pm and Our Cub Scout meetings at 10:30 am on Saturdays. Contact us if you are interested by email on the Contact Page or sent us a note. (You wouldn't believe how many members we've gotten this way!)

Our troop was first chartered on Jan. 29, 1924 and is one of the oldest in Mississippi. We are Celebrating in 2007 the completion of 83 years of Scouting. If you have ever had connections to Troop 1 or Pack 1, or are just interested, be sure to contact us about the particulars.
We are very interested in historical items from Troop 1, Pack 1 or Troop 63 as we are redecorating the Scout Hut and placing articles in areas by year.

We will keep you up to date on the Happenings and History of Troop 1 and Pack 1 on these pages. Be sure and check on us to see how much fun we have crafting, hiking, camping, learning, and Scouting.
BE PREPARED!...for FUN

THE BASICS OF THE SCOUTING PROGRAM
The Scout Oath

On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country
and to obey the Scout Law
To help other people at all times
To keep myself physically strong,
mentally awake, and morally straight
