This will be the annual meeting for determining outdoor activities and troop meeting agendas throughout the entire year.

All scouts should attend and come prepared to participate in this important meeting:  review the troop calendar (http://www.troop59.com/troop-59-calendar/) and responsibilities of troop leadership positions (http://www.troop59.com/troop-positions-of-leadership/) BEFORE THIS MEETING!

On May 17, scouts from Troop 59 once again gathered to honor veterans of United States Armed Forces with the placement of the US flag at the gravesites of those who have been laid to rest at the St. Vincent de Paul Cemetery.

As our country prepares to celebrate the national Memorial Day holiday on May 29,  the scouts solemnly remembered the service given by these brave men and women at nearly 300 graves. 

As Long Hill Township schools are on break this week, there will not be a Troop meeting this Wednesday, April 12th.  Our next meeting will be held on April 19th.

Nicholas Haines, Sean Theoclitus and Jonathan Soldan, three Scouts that achieved the rank of Eagle in 2016, were recognized by Long Hill Township.
