Troop 87 serves the youth of the Roswell/Alpharetta/Milton/Marietta area by helping boys learn and live the Scout Oath and Scout Law while having fun in a “high-adventure” Boy Scout troop. The Troop is youth-led with the adults in the Troop providing the support necessary to implement the calendar the Scouts decide upon. We believe in providing scouts with active, “hands-on” life experiences that focus on the outdoors, our community, and leadership skills.
