CHARTER & AFFILIATES

Our Charter and affiliates are so important and we accomplish a lot together. We wouldn't be able to do what we do without them. They help us create meaningful experiences for our youth. We are proud of our Charter and affiliates - Thank you!

Caliburn Masonic Lodge #785

All Scouts BSA Troops are associated with a Chartering Organization that sponsors them, as an extension of their organizations mission to serving the community. They serve as a chartering partner, owner and approves the selection of leaders. Troop 114 is honored to be chartered by the Cliburn Masonic Lodge #785.

HYDE PARK COMMUNITY UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

Our church home is HPCUMC and we are an extension of their Family Ministry. All are invited to visit on Sundays (See service times). The youth in our community are a very important part of the Church, and Troop 114 is a vital part. Check out HPCUMC’s website for other activities. 

A Scout is Reverent

Scouting tries to evoke a strong moral value system within its members, including the most important element – a belief in God and a sense of duty and reverence towards Him. While requiring that its members acknowledge a fundamental belief in a supreme creator, the Boy Scouts of America does not define the specifics of any particular religion except to say that a higher power must be the center of it. The BSA encourages its members to actively practice their own religious faith in worship. Scouting is a non-denominational religious and educational institution and all faiths are welcome.

You do not have to be a member of HPCUMC to join Troop 114. But if you do not currently have a church home, we encourage you to visit HPCUMC and we invite you to join in worshiping!
