History and Decription of Troop 426

Prior Scoutmasters include Dave Roberts who was the Scoutmaster through the mid/late 1990's, with parent help he re-organized the troop and the troop grew from nothing to many scouts, he is still with the troop today.  Another Scoutmaster is (Eagle Scout) Bill Kwolek who was Scoutmaster around 2001-2003, he has a son who is an eagle scout from the troop, Bill is still with the troop today.  Another prior Scoutmaster is John Johnson who has been with the troop since the late 1990's and who still works very hard to keep the troop better organized and running efficiently.  He was scoutmaster from 2003-2006.  Mr. Johnson has two Eagle Scouts in the troop and will probably have one more Eagle Scout by 2007/08.  When John became Scoutmaster the troop kept growing and more community projects were finished.
 
Finnally our "Brand-New" scoutmaster, Gary Paul, has been with the troop for a little over three years.  Mr. Paul believes in structure and kind discipline.  Mr. Paul believes in the "Patrol" method which will hopefully make the troop more disciplined, organizied, and more helpful to the community.  Mr. Paul has a son who will be an eagle scout by 2008. 
 
As the Troop keeps growing so does the number of great scoutmasters, and every additional scoutmaster helps to better the troop as a whole.
