In July, Troop 66 went to summer camp at Camp Mattattuck where some kids from Troop 260 joined us. All the scouts got to work on getting merit badges. Some merit badges scouts worked on include kayaking, environmental science, sculpting and movie making. We also got to do other activities like swimming, archery, fishing and more.There was also a special challenge for us to do. We had a chance to join Captain Jordan Beard’s yacht club and get a patch by doing various things like catching a fish, sailing in a rowboat or finding a geocache in camp, etc.
Troops 260, 262 and Venturing Crew 261 had an epic summer adventure in Iceland, and wow, what a trip it was! After two years of planning and fundraising, 26 Scouts and leaders finally set out on a journey they’ll never forget.The adventure kicked off in Reykjavik, where they wandered through streets lined with museums, art and interesting food. Some of the adults even braved Iceland’s infamous fermented shark (hákarl)— however we’d recommend the hot dog.

Beatrice Marcavitch, a Suffield High School 2025 graduate, was awarded the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouting.
In May, Troop 66 went to Crab Apple Whitewater in Charlemont, Massachusetts for a funyaking trip.
In April, Troop 66 went to the Shenandoah National Park in Virgina. We did a lot of things such as hiking up parts of the mountain where we saw amazing views.
