Boy Scouts of America Prepared for Life

Christmas Basket Food Collection

In the late afternoon of Wednesday, November 29, the scouts once again ventured into Paw Paw, distributing paper bags to residents, asking them to fill the bags with canned and boxed food items as part of the Lions Club’s Christmas Basket food collection drive. It’s an annual effort for both the Lions Club and Troop 169 to collect food donations and redistribute to those in need.

The scouts will be back out later in the week to collect the bags. Thank you to everyone who’s donated already and to those who will donate. It means a lot to not only those involved in both the collection and distribution of the food but to those who will receive the Christmas Basket donations.

Our Community

Accepting eager and adventurous scouts from Paw Paw and the surrounding area, Troop 169 has been active in Paw Paw for more than 20 years, producing numerous Eagle Scouts. The scouts strive to learn all that BSA Scouting has to offer, build comradery and lasting friendships among the troop and the community and then put what they’ve learned and experienced back into the troop and community.

Our Mission

Troop 169 shares in the mission of the Boy Scouts of America, to serve others by helping to instill values in young people and, in other ways, to prepare them to make ethical choices during their lifetime in achieving their full potential. The values we strive to instill are based on those found in the Scout Oath and Law.
