About Us
The Patrol Leadership Council (PLC)
The PLC brings together the leaders of each patrol and the Senior Patrol Leader to plan and implement troop activities. Adult leaders provide guidance, resources and backstopping but otherwise leave most decision-making to the troop's young leaders.
Our Adult Leadership
Troop 167 Arlington has a long and proud tradition of leaders who continue supporting and guiding the troop even when their scouts have moved on. We believe strongly in collective leadership and rotate our Scoutmaster role every two years to keep fresh ideas coming and to model the desired behavior for our scouts.
