What is the Troop Committee, you asked? (Or maybe you haven’t asked…) The Troop Committee at 455 is responsible for the “behind the scenes” organization and administration of the troop. Think of us like the agents of SHIELD — normal humans working behind the scenes that are supporting the Scout and Scoutmaster superheroes.
The Troop Committee meets once a month and the minutes of these meetings are posted in Scoutbook. Topics of the meetings might include recruiting, advancement, fundraising, or the Scoutbook migration. Our goal as a committee is to help make the everyday running of the troop as smooth as possible, so if you have ideas on what we can do better, please let us know!
Here are the current members of the Troop Committee:
- Committee Chair: Mike Ebner
- Treasurer: Tom Heene
- Fundraising: Pierce Pape
- Communications: Open
- Outdoor Activities: Mike Ebner
- High Adventure Coordinator: Sarah Caughron
- Camp Coordinator: Sarah Caughron
- Adult Training: Mickey Smith
- Advancement: Chris Antle
- New Family Coordinator: Open
- Haygood Rep: David Moore
- Scoutmaster: Brady Lum
We’re currently looking for someone to take on the Communications & New Family Coordinator roles. If you have a question about the Troop Committee, or would be interested in joining the Troop Committee, please reach out to Mike Ebner at michaelc.ebner1@gmail.com.
