Troop 71 is located in Macungie, a small town located in Eastern Pennsylvania just south of Allentown and about 50 miles north of Philadelphia. "Macungie" is from the Lenni-Lenape Indian word maguntsche, which means "feeding place for bears."
Troop 71 is sponsored by Solomon's United Church of Christ and is part of Trexler District, Minsi Trails Council, Boy Scouts of America.
We hold weekly meetings throughout the year on Tuesdays from 7:00 to 8:30 P.M. From September through May we meet at the Macungie Institute (mapquest); from June through August we meet at Camp Serranova (mapquest).
Troop 71 has been chartered by Solomon's UCC for over 75 years. Learn more about our Troop's history, courtesty of the Macungie Historial Society.
Eligibility: Boys from age 11 through 18 are eligible to join Boy Scouts. The boy does NOT need to be a member of Solomon's UCC or a student of the East Penn School District to join our Troop.
Scout involvement: Attendance at meetings and events is necessary in order for the boys to get the full Scouting experience. Adult involvement: We actively welcome involvement from adults to support the Scouting program. We expect that each adult will assist with at least one activity per year. What's going on: Check out our calendar below.
Who are we: Our leaders and Scouts are listed on the Troop roster.
Celebrating 100 Years - A Year of Celebration: For 100 years, the Boy Scouts of America has created a strong foundation of leadership, service, and community for millions of America's youth. Through A Year of Celebration, A Century of Making a Difference, we will demonstrate the incredible impact of a century of living the Scout Law.
