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.
