Introduction

Boy Scout Troop 79 has been an active part of the Buffalo Grove / Long Grove area for many years.  It was first chartered in 1978.  It has been sponsored by and meeting at Hope Lutheran Church since 1982.  Troop 79 is recognized as one of the best Troops in the Northeast Illinois Council.

The Troop has consistently had outstanding boy and adult leadership.  The boy leaders participate in leader training courses at the Troop and Council levels.  The Scoutmaster, Assistant Scoutmasters, Committee Chairman, and many Committee Members have taken Boy Scout Basic Training and other advanced leader training courses.

While advancement is considered an important part of our program, it is not overemphasized.  Our Troop is committed to the outdoor spirit.  Scouting is where boys can get exciting outdoor action and have fun.
