Troop 371 was founded in 1994. Since that time, hundreds of young men have participated in this troop. We are an active unit with regular outings and activities for our members. We strive to provide a quality program for our Scouts and have been extremely successful in growing boys into quality young men through the Scouting program.
With a 5am call time for a 5:30 departure to the airport, we had a relatively smooth transit from Lakeview Baptist Church to the Atlanta Airport to begin our trek. Bag drop and getting through airport security was surprisingly painless and quick. Unlike our 2019 trip, our actual flights and layovers went as planned, landing at Boston-Logan on time. After retrieving our three rental vehicles, we loaded up and headed north. Since all our travel went as planned, we were able to make our first stop of the trip at the Portland Head Light lighthouse at Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. Upon arrival at the park, we discovered that an "end of the school year" celebration was that night at dusk that included fireworks show, so we grabbed some pizzas from Otto Pizza (local chain) and had dinner in the park adjacent to the lighthouse and watched what ended up being a fantastic fireworks show. After the conclusion of the show, we made the final 45 minute or so drive to the predetermined hotel in Brunswick, Maine; as Dr. Hung made his initial arrival at Lamoine State Park in Maine.
