Join Troop 28
Who
Troop 28 welcomes boys and girls in grades 5–12 (ages 11–17) from Glencoe and nearby towns. No experience needed. Join any time of year. Sports and other activities are fine — come when you can.
When & where
We meet alternate Monday and Wednesday evenings at St. Elisabeth’s Episcopal Church, 556 Vernon Ave, Glencoe (lower-level meeting room; entrance on Hawthorn Ave between Vernon and Greenwood) (map), with a campout or outing most months.
Younger kids
Younger kids (K–5) join Pack 28 Cub Scouts. Fifth graders in the Pack’s Arrow of Light den do activities with the Troop during the year and cross over in spring.
Cost and financial aid
Fee and uniform
National and Council dues are $185 per year. You will also need a uniform shirt (about $35–45 with patches; see Uniform).
How the Troop is paid for
Troop 28 does not charge dues and does not receive your dues payment. The Troop’s money comes from our annual holiday sale.
Financial aid
No Scout is turned away for financial reasons. Friends of Glencoe Scouting offers discounted dues and activity fees. Email the Treasurer in confidence.
