Court of Honor

We had our Court of Honor on May 12th.  Everyone's been doing a great job with merit badges and rank advancements!

Ok folks...here is a test of our website...!

Victory at Camporee!

On September 22, 2012, the Eagle patrol of Troop 123 took first place at the annual fall district Camporee. The Camporee was held in Emmett, Idaho.  The patrol members took first place in many of the events including the atlatl throw, fire building, best campsite and uniform inspection.  Congatulations to the Troop 123 Eagles!

December 7, 2011 marked the 70th anniversary of the attack on Wake Island and Pearl Harbor. On this day Troop 123 assisted Noah with the dedication of the Wake Island Defenders Memorial at Veterans Memorial Park. The memorial and dedication ceremony were Noah's Eagle Project. A link to the news story is here:

In June Noah was awarded his Eagle rank at this Troop 123 Court of Honor.

On September 15, 2012 Troop 123 provided the color guard for another dedication at Veterans Memorial Park. Inspired by Noah's memorial, another group raised funds and got the approval to have an additional flagpole installed at the park, this one now flies a Wake Island Flag. News story link here

Eagle Scout Court of Honor

On June 5, 2012, Gunner's Eagle Scout Court of Honor was held. Troop 123 and many family and friends were in attendance. Gunner's Eagle Scout project was the refurbishing of two Napoleon 12-pounder guns for the Idaho Military History Museum. Gunner earned the Eagle rank on November 22, 2011. Congratulations, Gunner!

Willow Creek Competition

On April 13, 14, and 15 our troop competed in the 23rd annual Willow Creek competition with troops from Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Our Eagles patrol placed 3rd out of 51 patrols. Our troop placed 5th out of 28 troops. We took 1st place in knot tying, 2nd place in the map/land navigation test and 3rd place in flag etiquette. It was a great time and our scouts worked really hard to earn these honors.
